<p><b>CHA Board Bishop: 'I Side With USCCB'
against Health Bill</b><br>
</p>
<p><small>By Kathleen
Gilbert</small></p>
<p><small>ST. PETERSBURG, Florida, March 16, 2010 (<a
href="http://www.lifesitenews.com/">LifeSiteNews.com</a>) - Bishop
Robert Lynch of St. Petersburg has stepped into the row between the
Catholic Health Association (CHA), on whose board he is a member, and
the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), siding with the
bishops
in fighting the CHA-endorsed abortion-expanding Senate health care
bill.</small></p>
<p><small>The CHA sparked controversy over the weekend by throwing its
weight behind the vastly pro-abortion Senate health bill. CHA president
Sr. Carol Keehan had issued a letter to lawmakers urging them to
"move quickly to enact health care reform," and characterized
the legislation as "a major first step" - despite not being
"perfect" on life issues.</small></p>
<p><small>Days later, USCCB president
Cardinal Francis George directly disagreed with CHA's assessment,
affirming that the bill's flaws on life issues are "so
fundamental that they vitiate the good that the bill intends to
promote."</small></p>
<p><font color="#ff0000"><small><b>"As a member of the Board of the
Catholic
Health Association, I too want universal access to health care in this
country to all our inhabitants," wrote Lynch, also a member of the
USCCB, on <a
href="http://blogs.dosp.org/bishoplynch/2010/03/16/hospitals-and-bishops/">his
blog </a>Tuesday. "But I do not wish it through a vehicle that
expands abortion rights or weakens conscience clause protection.</b>
</small></font></p>
<p><small>"So I side with the USCCB on this one."</small></p>
<p><small>Lynch,
who was recently hospitalized, noted: "During the time of my
confinement, I have been led to believe that CHA and USCCB were working
together to eliminate any language in the health care proposals which
threatened the effectiveness of the long standing Hyde amendment."
</small></p>
<p><small>While Lynch said CHA supported the Stupak language, which
reflected the Hyde amendment in the House health care bill, he says the
organization "prefers" the vastly more pro-abortion Senate
version "as they deem it ultimately more successful, more
efficient, and more effective than the House passed version."
</small></p>
<p><small>Defending the bishops' condemnation of the Senate bill, Lynch
said: "Were the bishops’ conference asking for new legislation,
further tightening access to abortion or writing new abortion language
law, it would have trouble. From the beginning the bishops have said
only we must insure (sic) that we keep what we
have."</small></p>
<p><small>"If this were a tennis match, it would not yet be
'game' but 'advantage bishops,'" said the bishop.
"However, the game is still not over although it is approaching
match point." </small></p>
<p><small>"I hope and pray that in these final
decisive days, the Congress will see the wisdom of the Church’s
position
on abortion in health care as articulated by the bishops and the
experience and wisdom of the Catholic Health Care providers who yearn
for a reform of a system which is failing and becoming incredibly
expensive – to maintain and to access," he wrote.
</small></p>
<p><small>Lynch ended by expressing hope that "both CHA and the USCCB
can unite in general support" of health care reform with pro-life
protection.

</b>The World
Association of Girl Scouts and Girl Guides hosted a panel this week
where
Planned Parenthood was allowed to hand out a brochure encouraging girls
to
“<a href="http://ss.all.org/link.php?M=110638&N=697&L=4909&F=H">talk
dirty</a>” to their sex partners, to engage in aberrant sex, and
claiming there is no right or wrong way to have sex. The

brochure, published by International Planned Parenthood
Association and entitled “Healthy, Happy and Hot,” says that
young people living with HIV have the “right to sexual

disclose their HIV status.” It goes on to say that laws requiring
young people to disclose their HIV status to sexual partners “violate
the rights of people living with HIV by forcing them to disclose or
face
the possibility of criminal charges,” and tells them to complain
about any agency that tells them they should not have sex, and to shop
around for a place where they feel more respected.</small></p>

Sen. Tim Grendell (R, Chesterland) and Sen. Karen Gillmor (R, Tiffin)
introduced S.B. 242, a bill to revise the process of judicial bypass
under Ohio's Parental Consent for Abortion statute.<br>
<br>
Under
federal court rulings, parental consent statutes must permit a minor
girl to "bypass" the parental consent requirement by convincing a
juvenile judge either that: <br>
<br>
1) she is mature and well enough informed to decide whether to have an
abortion; or <br>
2) the abortion is in her best interests.<br>
<br>
The bill addresses the fact that some judges are giving virtual
"rubber-stamp" approval to these judicial bypass requests. <br>
<br>
In a 2008 <span style="font-style: italic;">Columbus Dispatch</span>
article on bypass hearings, one Franklin County judge indicated that
she had never denied a bypass request and another judge stated that she
had denied only one request. A 2003 <span style="font-style: italic;">Akron
Beacon Journal</span>
survey found a bypass approval rate of either 86% or 92% (the latter
when a county that lumped voluntary dismissals with denials was
excluded).<br>
<br>
S.B. 242 would require that:<br>
<br>
- The girl must prove her case by "clear and convincing evidence"; <br>
-
The judge ask about the girl's understanding of the possible physical
and emotional complications of abortion and what she would do if she
experienced such complications; and <br>
- The judge question the
extent that the girl has been "prepped" about how to answer questions
and what testimony to give at the bypass hearing.<br>
<br>
In addition
to Senators Grendell and Gillmor, Ohio Senators co-sponsoring S.B. 242
are: Steve Buehrer; Keith Faber; Jon Husted; Tim Schaffer; Bill Seitz;
and Chris Widener.</font></font></font><font face="Calisto MT"><br>
