Lol, what happened to my k and w?
We are not discussing robots but the actual duties of a specific position. If Ms Morality is the only one there will she refuse to hand over a prescript filled by another? Can she touch? Or touch the money in the register handled by THE IMMORAL paying for it? How close could she get to IT? An inch, a foot, a yard?
As long as governments regulate these professions they can set standards for care.
And no pharmacist has the right to refuse a prescription (though checking with the doctor is ok) he suspects will be used for immoral purposes or "improper" purposes. THAT is not part of their jobs either. Where does THAT "right" come from?
You are exactly talking about reducing the position to that of an automaton. By gov't force.

Don't be ridiculous. What is so hard about understanding that some people do not want to be a party to murder? And why are you so insistent that they be forced to be?

Sure they can. And they can write laws forcing Catholic hospitals to give out pills and do abortions as well.
That doesn't make it right to refuse others consciences.

The pharmacist is not a robot. Do you understand this point? If he has suspicions that you are up to no good, he can refuse to fill your script.
Why must everyone approve of the actions of others?
