9. I don't think

an employee at a pharmacy refusing to dispense drugs falls under that. I think it would be judicial activism if a judge buys that argument. I would think an employee refusing to do the thing that the business exists for is not a religious accommodation. I think that would be an undue burden for the employer.

A pharmacy that is in the business of dispensing drugs has a pharmacist that refuses to dispense a drug that the pharmacy sells.

I would see it differently if a pharmacy refuses to sell contraception on religious grounds.They don't purchase it or stock it, and therefore don't sell it. If the pharmacy spends the money to stock and carry contraception, and an employee is refusing to sell it... is a different story.
