You jump in on the side of imposing your religious beliefs on a private concern.

The fact that an unborn child is a human being is not a religious matter, but a fact of biology.

A private company has no right to enjoin its employees to commit murder. That is not a just condition of unemployment.

While the pharmacists are free to bring suit against Walgreen's enjoining the above point, the pharmacists will remain unemployed because they have violated a condition of employment.

It would be preferable for their own benefit if they sought employment in another state.

Unfortunately, the law does not agree with us on that issue.

The solution is to find a job elsewhere, which is quite easy for pharmacists these days.

Exactly right! The larger issue here is the state law compelling pharmacists -- and their employers -- to be complicit in this. And "I was only following orders" didn't work at Nuremburg, as I remember.
