"If you wanna buy something, go to a store that sells it."
Or is common sense too much to ask?
It's nuts to say people have to stock and sell everything the government demands.
The original question on this thread was about morning after pills, but ---- you're right --- it could be about as simple as a contraceptive. And I support the right to decline to sell contraceptives, too.
Contraceptives both accessible and cheap. Heck, theyre at the level of total market saturation. You can get the jellies and jams, foams and sprays woo hoo, you can get a condom at any grocery store, any truck stop, any Bubba's Beer and Bait.
Wal-Mart has the Ortho Tricyclen (oral contraceptive) for $9 amonth. Target has the Trojan 12-pack for $4.00. Thats 33 cents apiece.
They could hardly be more available if they were in every bag of M&Ms in America.
This isn't about freely chosen practices, it's about coerced services.
Anyone who wants to freely choose a personal contraceptive, a personal Quran, a personal assault rifle, or personal access to pornography: go ahead and choose it. Thats your choice.
I don't believe in any of that crap, and I shouldn't have to sell it. Thats my choice.
Remember, getting the product isn’t the point.
Punishing Christian beliefs is the point.
So it doesn’t matter if fifteen thousand stores within convenient distance sell the thing they want,
if there exists ONE “Christian owned” business that refuses it,
they’ll target it.
I agree on every point.
Most of the time, they had to be discarded because they wore through the wallet without ever being opened. Most of the rest of the time, they ended up as water balloons.
“They could hardly be more available if they were in every bag of M&Ms in America.”
Hey... I thought that’s why we weren’t eating the red M & Ms!
