Religious Objections Protected by the HHS

Religious Objections Protected by the HHS
Just came across one of my feeds today. A new division has been added to HHS, the Conscience and Religious Freedom Division within its Office for Civil Rights. It will enforce existing laws regarding medical professionals' right to claim that certain procedures would violate their personal and religious beliefs.

HHS news release: https://www.hhs.gov/about/news/2018/01/1...ision.html
HHS details: https://www.hhs.gov/conscience/index.html

The concern is that this may allow for discrimination.

Edit: Oops, see Divinity got to it first: https://atheistforums.org/thread-53093.html
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
