Unless I'm mistaken, not all Catholic institutions receive Federal monies, whereas the contraception mandate affects all them regardless of whether they do or not.  Hence the BJU case doesn't serve as a model for this particular issue without some new law being passed by Congress.  Incidentally, being beholden to Federal funds is precisely why a number of religious institutions were not happy about W's faith-based initiatives.  They were concerned that if they became dependent upon them to do their work, a future administration would do something similar to what you proposed.

While I didn't explicitly say so, I thought it was fairly clear in my previous reply that I thought the approach you mentioned would work.  About the only way it would fail to work would be if to obtain the desired funds the religious institutions were required to do things that areligious institutions were not required to do.
