If Obama had said these things there's no chance I'd vote for him.

The fact they don't sell birth control doesn't bother me since they are upfront about it and probally wont be getting informed women as clientele.
On the other hand they should return the script or call it in to the pharmacy of choice if a person wanders in and is unaware of their policy.
if they didn't give me my script back they would have to call the police to get me outta there. I wouldn't leave without it. I don't give a damn who's morals they think they're following. |

Then they should find a field that doesn't conflict with their religion. I understand what you're saying... and in ANY other circumstance, I would say more power to them. They shouldn't have to sell anything they don't want to. But not when it pertains to healthcare. They don't have a right to pick and choose who gets the medicine they need. |

| If I wanted to hear their beliefs I would show up at their church. They don't have the right to bring their religious policies on me and my body. |

| A pharmacist has NO business telling me I can't get something regarding my health based on their religious beliefs. The healthcare field is one where if you can't accomdate all that need healthcare, then you pick a different field. You can't pick and choose. You'll only help the Catholics. This is why many women have sued, and WON the right for the pharmacies to carry birth control and give it to those who have a prescription for it. Who the hell does a pharmacist think they are to deny someone medicine pertaining to their health? It's not about having to go to another pharmacy. It's about them forcing their beliefs on us when they have no business doing so. It's about them sending anyone who isn't like minded to them, to another pharmacy. It's healthcare. They need to just do their job and give me what my DOCTOR told me to get. If they can't, then go work somewhere else. |

| If I went to dinner at a vegatarian place and then realized I made a mistake and couldn't get my steak, I will happily find somewhere else to go. Or maybe I will even try their salad bar, who knows. I may grumble to myself about what a stupid mitake I made in going there... However, it would never occur to me going into a pharamcy that I couldn't get my prescription filled based on someone else's religious beliefs. |

| You're right. An immediate death will not occur over this. What concerns me is that Pharmacists are being given the right to overrule my doctor. That just shouldn't happen. |

| I just don't think pharmacists should be given the right to not give someone a prescribed medicine. What if some heart medicine has a side effect of lowering your chances to get pregnant?? Are they going to quit selling that too?? I'm not saying people don't have the right to have religious stores. And people shouldn't be forced to sell things that go against their religions. So instead of running a pharamcy, maybe another line of business would have been more appropriate. I just don't see why they are given the right to impact my personal health. |

Okay, so how do you feel about Muslim store clerks who believe pork is unclean that have to handle it in the course of their employment?
Do you think they should be allowed to refuse to perform that portion of the job?
Just asking
yup
but what if the Muslim owns the store? should he be forced to sell pork?
Maybe they shouldn't be in that line of business?? If he's the owner maybe he should cater to Muslims that won't be buying pork anyway. There's nothing wrong with having a religious based store. Whether or not a Muslim sells pork in his market has no bearing on my personal health. |

Are you guys advocating violating their religious and persoanl rights to keep you from having to walk across the street to a different pharmacy.
I love how we are real quick to jump up and defend our own rights and think nothing of violating someone elses in doing so.
Its just like freedom of speech. Nazi groups have freedom of speech to spew their racist crap. They dont have the freedom to do it in front of a synagogue. Your personal rights stop, the second they step on someone elses personal right.
Yes, you can die. You can contract an STD like AIDS that will kill out if you don't use condoms.
No, you died from having unprotected sex, not from them not selling you a condom. If they sold condoms and they just happened to be out that day and you had sex anyway and caught an STD would that be there fault as well?
I am in no way taking blame or responsibility from the individuals to protect themselves. I'm just saying they shouldn't be denied tools to do so. |

How are they telling you you have to suffer through anything? If you ar suffering through anything because they refuse to sell you birth control all that means is you are suffering because you are either to stupid or to lazy to go to a different pharmacy.
(this was not meant as a personal attack)
I'm getting at "where does it end" As long as these items are available to people then OK. I don't want to take away their beliefs either. And I'm not saying mine is more important than theirs. I'm saying as a matter of health, some items should not be denied access. |

I don't think they are taking away anything by choosing not to sell something that is against their religion. I don't particularly agree with em, but I support their right not to support something that is anathematical to their religion
Then maybe they should sell it to people in their congregation? When it comes to people's health, and you are a pharmacy open to the general public, you should be checking your religious beliefs at the door. What next?? The doctor won't give you a hysterectomy when you need it because it prevents pregnancies? I mean where does it stop? |
