26. They just want the right to use their faith to deny other people

their rights.

"The Green family's religious beliefs forbid them from participating in, providing access to, paying for, training others to engage in, or otherwise supporting abortion-causing drugs and devices,"


Then they should have moved on to a deserted island years ago and had no interactions with anyone else who doesn't follow their beliefs. No hiring people who don't follow their beliefs, no paying any taxes, no societal interactions with different thinking people at all ever.

Hobby lobby doesn't have to buy the pills and give them out all they have to do is pay an insurance company that doesn't deny coverage when they pay out. It is the choice of these companies/organizations to make this into an issue of 'someones screwing with my faith'.
