Lingering Remnants of Anti-Catholic Gray Davis

Oral arguments are set for tomorrow in Catholic Charities' challenge to a state law which requires them and like agencies to include contraception in employee health benefits.

The arguments by the state that Catholic Charities is a secular institution because it serves non-Catholics is stupid. On the other hand, since I understand a lot of Catholic Charities publicly distribute things like condoms, I think it's a little disingenuous for them to say that because they have the word "Catholic" in their name, they are a religious institution that should be exempt from a clearly anti-Catholic law.
