We might abide a lot of things, but forcing someone to pay for this type of “coverage” is intolerable.
No different than conscientious objectors. Our governmetn has ALWAYS recognized this.
Another catch phrase, a dog whistle to radicals that trumps the 1st & 9th Amendments every time.
This is going to reach a point where people with principles will have no choice but to refuse to cooperate.
Obama has given all Muslims the right to opt out, because Obamacare violates some of their beliefs. Christians, no, although this violates our most basic beliefs.
Muslims can refuse to be involved with something that violates their financial principles. But Christians have to violate the God-given, inalienable right to life. No way.
How can anyone justify that?
Hobby Lobby may not have to worry after all. Governor Fallin said today she would refuse to set up the Health Care Exchanges. LOL
Now that ObamaCare is law and Obama is re-elected, where will medical tourism health care explode in response? Costa Rica? Mexico? Bermuda? Jamaica? Wherever it is, they are in for an economic boom - another reason I’d love to see Texas secede.
Drop your employee’s insurance and pay the fine. It’s cheaper. Tell your employees that you’re sorry but ‘talk to the 0bama.’
Fire all women of child-bearing age.
refuse to hire same.
Problem solved.
They always use some perverted variation of the Commerce Clause. They want everybody to believe that the Commerce Clause trumps the rest of the Constitution.
"For-profit corporations" are owned and operated by human beings who have the right of "free exercise of religion," nitwit.
Hopefully this is going the USSC, and that nitwit Roberts falls down an open sewer pipe before it gets there.
Nowhere in the first amendment does it say that the govt can mandate a company to provide birth control or abortion(of any type) OR interfere with an individual’s or corporation’s right to freely exercise their religion:
“I.Congress cannot make a law that favors the establishment of one particular religion; that prohibits the free exercise of religion; or that restricts freedom of speech or of the press, or the right of the people to gather and engage in peaceful demonstrations and to petition the government for redress of their grievances.”
but then, as obama says “I don’t need no steenkin’ constitution!”
they do, however, have the right to close and eliminate employees altogether!!!
Compelling interest if Fed speak for “You’ll do what we say because we say so”.
Muzzies and congress are exempt from barrycare, right?
It’s interesting to compare this to the Tyndale House ruling.

HL’s course is clear, drop all women employees to 28 hrs./week.
Write a check to obs campaign and then request a waiver from obcare
Depends on the religious organization. I think the Amish and Muslims are exempt, but the Catholic Church sure isn't.
