It's not just those who oppose birth control that are upset about this of course.
Imagine, once was a time respecting people's rights of conscience was considered the liberal position.
*yawn*
The theocrats are asking for very specific things:
1. To collect government funds and discriminate (see Catholic Charities losing their government-funded adoption contract(s) when they refuse to assist same-sex parents seeking to adopt in states with legal adoption for same-sex couples & anti-discrimination laws)
2. To be hired as a pharmacist and refuse to dispense birth control/contraceptives because it "violates their conscience"
3. To run a large medical/educational organization (such as a hospital or a university) and request exemptions from anti-discrimination laws or legal mandates that every other hospital and university must adhere to with the justification that it's a
religious hospital/university and therefore should be exempt.
Should these "conscience" exemptions be granted?
