Appearing on Fox News Fox and Friends on Tuesday morning, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul offered some advice to President Obama in regards to his upcoming meeting with Pope Francis.

He ought to explain to the pope why he is telling businesses in America they cant remain true to their faith and stay in business, Paul said.

The Hobby Lobby case is being discussed [at the Supreme Court] today, Paul continued, and I think its important that he tell the leader of the Catholic Church why he thinks that businesses owned by Catholics cant make their own decisions with regard to health care.

After misrepresenting the Hobby Lobby case, Paul went on to agree with a prior comment from the Vaticans chief justice, Cardinal Raymond Burke, to the effect that the Obama administration was hostile toward Christian civilization.

I think it is something that really should be discussed in our country, Paul said. Most of us, whether youre Republican or Democrat, believe in free exercise of your religion. But if theyre telling you that your tax dollars have to go to something you find morally reprehensible, I think thats not free exercise of religion.

Near the end of the interview, Paul cracked a joke about the presidents surveillance programs, saying that Obama should tell the pope hes not going to spy on him anymore.
