Well, it seems only for FEMALE Employees. Eden Food will cover MALE Vasetomies, not but FEMALE Tubal Ligations? Condoms are fine, but not Diaphgams? All those babies who never got the chance to get CONCEIVED because of evil barrier methods or sterilization? Or does that only apply to **** FEMALES, and not MALE employees?

Go back to Catholic school, Mr. Potter. The Catholic Church opposes MALE contraception as much as female contraception, even when it cannot POSSIBLY be considered an "abortifacient". EVERY sexual act must be OPEN to procreation, included MARRIED ones. Women are just baby makers? Does not apply to MALES??????

The Supreme Court, and especially OPUS DEI Scalia, opened us up to a Catholic Theocracy, and the Catholic Clergy in the USA is just DROOLING over this, since the majority of Catholics haven't paid any attention to their teachings on contraception in generations. Look at their birthrate statistics if you believe they are following their church on birth control.

As a privately held company they can now impose their religious values on their employees due to the latest SCOTUS ruling. This will certainly not be the last. it will be abused.

Kinda like Obamacare itself being imposed upon those who never asked for it. Comes home to roost.

No one is having religious values imposed on them at all.


Any employee of Eden, or Hobby Lobby, or any other religious individual or organization that objects to contraception--they are all perfectly free to purchase their own health policies that cover contraception or to pay for it themselves.


They don't have to live by their employer's religion, they just can't force the employer to pay for things the employer doesn't believe in.

Wow, after reading this it becomes apparent that this isn't about religion, and more about Mr Potters anger at being mandated to provide insurance for his employees. I think it's great that my payments will no longer go to subsidizes him.

Agreed. I'm so sick of people claiming their religion as an excuse for everything. Really, they just want to make more profit.

Well, the Constitution was imposed upon those who never asked for it too. Laws against murder were imposed upon those who never asked for it. Get over it.

I think it's pathetic. Although, I might add, Salon is pretty left-leaning so they might be trying to paint Potter in a bad light.. Just saying.

Eden foods should not have to cover contraception.

Those who disagree do not have to buy their products.

Yup. The hypocrisy is breathtaking.

And I certainly will NOT be. I'm voting with my wallet. Their stuff is overpriced anyway.

Obamacare provides. This CEO wants to take away. Not the same thing at all. Nice try though.
