I've had bosses like this.

An ailing priest has been removed from his job in a Staten Island parish and ordered to return to his native Philippines after taking time off for lifesaving dialysis.

The Archdiocese of New York said it cannot take responsibility for the Rev. Eusebio Pablito Maghari's welfare after he suffered kidney failure as a result of his diabetes in September.

Church officials claim he can no longer perform his godly duties at St. Peter's Church - and he was terminated from his post as assistant priest Tuesday.

Maghari, 59, said he is fit to work and hopes to fight the move to send him home because dialysis treatment in the Southeast Asian nation is too expensive.

to the Health Care Reform Bill is that the Catholic Church as an amployer would have to provide health insurance to its employees.

I don't think that's the main reason but it's likely to be driving their decision.
