Burwell v Hobby Lobby

I read a summary of it, and I believe the biggest thing they argued for was that their 'expression of religious freedom' (i.e., not funding the morning after pill) did not operate contra to governmental interest (it didn't put anyone's life in danger, prevent them from receiving treatment, etc) especially because Hobby Lobby still funds 16 other forms of cotnraception. I don't think jehovah's witnesses could argue the same about blood transfusions, since that literally is denying treatment, nor Catholic companies complaining about condoms, since they in and of themselves prevent disease.
In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.
