Catholic ping!
I would have said, no. Period. They could fire me, I wouldn’t care.

She was no forced. They did not physically force her to participate. She was given an implied or explicit choice. She could have given up her job. If she believes strongly enough to sue then she should have sacrificed her job rather than be part of taking a life.
When laws are no longer Just we have no Justice. When laws are no longer moral, we have an illegitimate government and are being ruled over by despots.
If this court had argued in one of those cases that the discrimination could happen without any remedy to the aggrieved they would be labeled racists and hounded out of the courts, or at least prevented from rising any higher.
So...do I understand this right...?
The court pointed out that just because it’s against the law for the hospital to discriminate, that doesn’t mean the law says she can get cash for it? But that it also said she has the right to pursue state discrimination claims, etc...?
IANAL...are there any around who can put this into context? Is this common reasoning of the federal judiciary?
Ever thought they told her to do this during a particularly weak moment for her, a she regrets what she has done, and now is calling this hospital out in the courts to protect medical workers’ religious beliefs?
(And if she has been forgiven by God— if so, who are we to keep throwing stones at her?)
I’m praying God will turn this court case into something good—to help save babies’ lives and keep good nurses-— if anyone can, He can do it.
This is nothing short of a violation of religious freedom guaranteed by the Constitution. It is coercing one to abandon one’s faith. This arrogance of the Gov’t will be its ultimate undoing.
The US is an anti-God nation no longer bound by the precepts the Founders affirmed. As such it probably isn’t a moral union anyway having dissolved the foundational principles that originally bound the real parties to the Constitution - the sovereign States. Particularly repugnant are the liberal hell-holes known as the Northeast and the West Coast (western CA, Ore, Wash).
Long live Texas and, if it pleases God, may it successfully survive the ultimate self-destruction of the US.
But if she were a Muslim forced to work in the presence of pork products, she’d own the place.
We are clinging to the debris that was once our Republic. It is amazing how some can rationalize this. So, she can quit instead of participating? If she was Muslim, would the same thing happen. We have been dumbed down to the point that we no longer recognize the loss of our freedoms as Americans!
I’m outraged that she assisted.
Not to mention, she would have had a real case if she let them actually punish her for not participating. She participated at will. There’s no case.
She was a coward. It’s like blaming the SS for forcing you to shoot Jews.
With all due respect, she should have told them to “f—k off!”. They can’t FORCE her to do anything...all they can do is fire her.

Due to the radical left, America’s courts have been descended into Stalinism.
The legislation that allows them to do this was passed by a lesbian NYS Assemblyperson Debbie Glick, about 6 years ago. She got plenty of help from the rest of the scumbags in the Assembly and Republicans in the NYS Senate plus Pataki. Probably not more than 1 in 100 New Yorkers know this is the law and probably not more than 30 in 100 New Yorkers agree with it.
