Of course it is applicable, if they are saying I must violate my own conscience. To Liberals, one’s religion is only allowed as far as the doors of their church or synagogue.

To a religious person, we live our religion every minute of every day. Therefore, you making me do something that is against my religion, is in violation of my 1st Amendment rights - PERIOD! Doesn’t matter WHERE or WHEN that violation is forced, it is still a violation.

Any other interpretation of the 1st Amendment, simply DESTROYS the entire Constitution and the foundations of America. Any other interpretation relegates religion to a Sunday morning or Wednesday evening “hobby,” completely removing the moral conscience of religion from everyday life. Which is what Liberals want, because then they can force the replacement of those religious morals with government-sanctioned/government-forced morals like political correctness and social justice!

That's why you are more likely to successfully challenge this ObamaCare provision as an individual than these organizations are. The problem is that they have mounted a legal challenge against this ObamaCare provision on religious grounds, when in many cases they aren't even religious organizations. Catholic Charities, for example, gets something like 60% of its revenues from the U.S. Federal government. That's not a religious organization. It's a well-organized racket.

Hobby Lobby, on the other hand, was able to win a stay in the Federal courts because they are truly a private organization. It's a corporation, but it's a closed corporation that was established to allow the founding family to run their business based on a Christian code of standards. And they don't require grants from government to stay in business, so they can clearly demonstrate that they are a private organization.
