The federal government’s attempt to compel religious clinics and hospitals to carry out gender transition surgeries and procedures against their moral convictions has been halted by a court. The case, which involved the Catholic “Religious Sisters of Mercy” and other groups that refused to take part in gender transition operations, was resolved on Friday. A group of Catholic nuns known as the Religious Sisters of Mercy provides medical care to transgender people, but they refuse to perform gender-transition surgeries because they think they are harmful. The Eighth Circuit of the United States Court of Appeals agreed with the lower court’s decision to halt enforcement of the rule, citing “intrusion upon the Catholic Plaintiffs’ exercise of religion is sufficient to show irreparable harm” in its filing.
There is a genuine war on conscience by the Left, and yet many of our society’s most compassionate and caring people work in the healthcare industry because of their religious beliefs. They are driven by a compassion for those less fortunate than themselves. But the Left keeps pressuring them to act against their own principles, even though they mean well. It’s imperative that this form of heinous wrongdoing be put to an end.
The United States of America will never become the great nation our founders envisioned if its citizens lack conscience and are not guided by reason and true religion. The future looks bleak if we let go of what is true, good, and beautiful. We must not let the Left rob us of our moral compass or our freedom to pursue our values.
The good news is that an increasing number of Americans are fighting for justice and protecting the right to think and act as they please. Many Americans, following in the footsteps of John Adams and the other founders’ hopes for America to remain a “moral and religious people,” are working hard to ensure that this ideal remains intact. As always, we must stand up for the values that come with a free conscience. The very stability of our society depends on it.
