Fucktard.
Yes, when it contradict their beliefs, which providing contraception does... that's nothing new, Christians also don't believe in gay marriage, hence the refusal to make cakes.... also nothing new. however providing medicine in general doesn't contradict anyone's belief, and if it did, boy did he choose the wrong profession.
You brain must be as smooth as a boiled egg..
Actually, providing medicine does contradict some people's religious beliefs. But that is not the main thing I wish to point out.
In the case of a pharmacy selling drugs, if one has a moral problem with it, one ought not be a pharmacist. In the case of baking cakes, if one believes that cake baking is immoral, one ought not be a baker of cakes.
These assholes want to have their cake and eat it too. If your moral standards do not allow you to do a particular job, you should get a different job. Otherwise, if we let people refuse service for religious reasons, people will be refusing service to black people and any other people they want to refuse service to, and that is unacceptable. Many racist assholes would be happy to go back to the old ways of segregation and exclusion of black people, refusing service to them, on religious grounds.
If you don't want to dispense drugs, fine, don't be a pharmacist. If you don't want to bake cakes, fine, don't be a baker. Pick something that you are willing to do, not something that you are not willing to do.
