I can't speak for anyone else, but I am not in favor of the SCOTUS ruling even though I am religious. My problem stems from the precedent that this ruling sets: private employers have the right to eliminate the coverage of contraceptives from a policy on religious grounds.
Why should an employer be able to impose their religious views on their employees, who more than likely are paying into the health insurance? The policy is part of the compensation plan.
A. Nobody's "access" to birth control is being denied. This is the New Left. Worse than the Old Left. It used to be the left would say, "Stay out of my business." Now they say, "Stay out of business! Oh and you have to pay for it." This goes back to what Rachel said the other day to a protester at the court about rights and "access."
B. If your boss says, "Sorry, I am not going to pay for the coverage for __________ " in your health care plan, he/she is not having a say in your health care decisions. This is similar to her previous complaint. But now she's extending to where not only is she supposedly being "denied access" to contraception, but her boss is somehow making her healthcare decisions for her.
C. What was at stake here was Religious Freedom Restoration Act. This has nothing to do with men or women. It has to do with liberty. What the Supreme Court decided was that a business owners do not have to check their religious beliefs at the door simply because they want to run a business.

They are not imposing their religious views on you. I'm not sure why this has to be repeated over and over. You can still do whatever you damn please.

From my persective, religious views are being imposed in the form of denying coverage. For example, if I was a Hindu owner of a private business, and I wanted to deny coverage for cardiovascular medication because I saw a correlation between eating meat and heart disease, would I be justified in doing so?

Because they have done nothing to stop their employees from using any bc the choose. No one has lost any rights.

I agree. No one has lost the right; however, the ease of accessibility has been diminished on religious grounds, which I don't agree with.
They can access it anywhere they choose no one is denying them access
