Bzzt wrong! No one has that "right". I can't start burning down their churches or excluding them from government functions, but that's about as far as it goes.
I can criticize you fools all that I want.

Would you like, say, your money going to a Christian missionary association because the government deems the spreading of Christianity in Muslim countries a way of making peace?

The insurance companies are providing birth control free of charge. It is actually cheaper for an insurance company to do this than pay for a childbirth or abortion.
I repeat: free contraception is beneficial to the insurers & it costs the biblethumpers nothing. This is about control, pure & simple.
