Basically, Hobby Lobby did not object to contraceptives but to contraceptives that cause abortion...
The SCOTUS opinion is a narrow decision affecting privately-held corporations being forced to pay for employees’ abortificients. It does not protect publicly-held corporations, nor corporations whose religious beliefs oppose hiring open homosexuals.
And Traitorobama could well order his HHS gestapo to directly fund abortificients to those employees whose companies do not provide them.
The Obama HHS will react to the ruling by issuing regulations requiring fedgov to pay for these drugs.
If they do that, how is it any different from the Obama administration telling those corporations that they aren’t paying for the meds because the insurance company is paying for them?
SC wants to make sure that they don’t step on religious freedoms in anticipation of shariah law once Islam is made the law of the land. Hey the government should have the right to lop off your head if you don’t convert to Islam or fail to obey.../s
I didn’t see what the ruling was 5-4? 7-2?
The opinion of the minority four is staggering. In short, govt do whatever they wish to do.
