On Wednesday, the court released opinions in the following cases: In Our Lady of Guadalupe School v. Morrissey-Berru, the justices held that employment discrimination suits by female teachers fired by Catholic elementary schools are barred by the First Amendment's "ministerial exception." In Little Sisters of the Poor v. Pennsylvania, the justices upheld a federal rule exempting employers with religious or moral objections from providing contraceptive coverage to their employees under the Affordable Care Act.

7 - 2 ruling. Kind of surprises me.

I thought it might be the usual 5-4 but two more libs even ruled in favor of freedom, at least where providing pregnancy ending contraceptives are concerned!
