Wouldn't it make more sense to quit rather than accept a salary from a company who practices what you condemn?

If we had a free market and business owners had the choice so a health care employee had a choice, it would make sense. But when governments force this choice on all businesses, it gets to the point where pro-lifers can't work in the profession. Is that what you want?

Not all I was just questioning the seriousness of one's conviction when it comes to supporting their religious beliefs. It strikes me as odd that a pharmacist would refuse to dispense a drug while accepting a salary that includes profits from its sale. There is also a slippery slope argument to be made. Some religions forbid any type of birth control, even over the counter devices. What's an employer supposed to do? Hire employees based on which products each particular religion allows them to sell?
