Yes, that's good...but it's unclear what reasoning allows them to allow Hobby Lobby to evade covering certain types of birth control, that doesn't apply to a Jehovah's Witness business owner not being able to do the same. At first glance, the reasoning seems to be based on none of the justices being a JW.
Exactly.
It's only a matter of time before the hypocrisy in allowing religious exemptions for certain types of BC and disallowing religious exemptions for blood transfusions is made clear. The justices are cherry-picking what they agree with.
It's a crying shame SCJ hold their position for life.
