Re: Supreme Court backs Hobby Lobby in contraceptive mandate challenge
Let's try this again.
No employer is trying to push their religious beliefs on anyone.
The ACA MANDATED certain medical coverage and, as such, infringed on the religious liberty of certain employers who fought against that infringement and won.
The ACA is a poor excuse for wanting to push the religious beliefs and morals of the employer onto the employee. I could just as easily say this is employers, bitter over being legally required to assist in their employees healthcare, shamelessly using their beliefs to fight a battle they've lost countless times. And because freedom of religion is one the founding principles of this country, SCOTUS doesn't want to just say "too bad" and steamroll them.
Why are vasectomies covered? they provide nothing but the risk associated with any procedure and the ability to have sex without risk of conception(or incredibly low risk, like most birth control methods). Sex is supposed to be strictly for reproduction right? Why no moral obligation to make it more difficult for non believers to have risk free sinful intercourse?
