Those are still based on a moral judgment that rights should be upheld.
Unless you have figures that dispute this.
RP, though I disagree with you, you're usually very rational.
This comment is not one of your better ones.
In relationships, you do have problems: like leaving your estate to your partner without interference from the family... And before you start, I think of a specific case, where a gay man left his estate to his partner and the family of the man contested the will, and won. And this in a blue state!
This shouldn't happen, so I am for Civil unions for Gays...
Do you think this woman stopped using the pill as a result of this incident?
Sometimes being wrong is a natural consequence when not allowed to ask, isn't it?
Hey, you set the rules. You live with it.
Lawsuits are filed over estates in heterosexual relationships all the time. Try again.
Then can we make all such assumptions about you and yours?
Those laws cover a situation where someone takes, say, a nursing job at a hospital and is later assigned to a department that handles abortions. It would not cover somebody who took a job at an abortion clinic and then refused to be involved in abortions.
I prefer America where one may not be compelled to perform or submit to what one believes to be an immoral act.
That is also what I strongly support the anti-gay marriage amendments and am proposed to hate-crime legislation.
You are a liberal.
Make that "opposed to."
Actually no, not about what is left to the spouse... try again!
Unless his employer allowed him to opt out of filling scripts for birth control or there was a law that allowed him to do so, he would be required to fill all prescriptions.
And I'm not aware of any doctor whose job description requires him or her to perform abortions
I imagine that doctors who work at abortion clinics do.
"There are approximately 2 gazillion phramacists in this country who will fill the womens prescription. As the saying goes, lets try to keep it real."
But we're not talking about those pharmacists, are we? We're talking about a particular pharmacist who believes that his or her values trump the potential medical needs of someone whose doctor has written her a legal prescription.
And since we're getting real, I have an aunt who lives in a very rural area. There's one pharmacy in town. The next closest one is 90 minutes away. Not a fun drive in bad weather, especially during winter.
I submit for your consideration Anna Nicole Smith.
Against rights I see... because the 1st amendment is also important!
Funny, I represent the vast majority... But you don't seem to see that... There is no party line to toe...
If you go on like that, you'll alienate this majority... Don't forget that another 160000 votes in Ohio would have flipped the result!
I don't see you as a conservative at all, as conservatives aren't in trying to impose their values on others.
So missing the use of your car for a week because another motorist crashed into it is no worse than missing the use because you forgot to change the oil and ruined the engine?
Government has played a huge role.
I guess in theory we could still have some aviation, but it would certainly be a different kind of aviation if the airlines had to come to a separate agreement with and receive a license from every landowner through whose property they wished to fly, wouldn't it?
