Catholic schools and hospitals are regulated by state standards of education and health. Why should it be any surprise that those organizations also come under federal insurance standards
No one's saying it's a surprise, but rather that the federal standards - standards lacking actual outlined government power, mind you - do not adequately address the religious issue in play.
Also, how does Catholic religious doctrine now suddenly apply to employees who had previously been free of religious requirements?
It's not about the employees.
