From what I can understand, Hobby Lobby will still be providing 19 forms of birth control for women, but they will not provide the birth control that includes the morning-after pill. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that has been my understanding so far...

You are right, it will provide all forms of birth control, but will not support abortifacients. Their belief is that after conception, it is considered murder. Normal birth control prevents conception. Abortifacients are used "after" conception.

In a nutshell, we are a nation founded on the history of fleeing religious oppression. It is our legacy. Our Founding Fathers placed "Freedom of Religion", under the Bill of Rights, as our FIRST protection BEFORE Freedom of Speech and BEFORE Freedom of the Press.

We must be able to worship God within the dictates of our conscience. We cannot allow that to be taken away. If that is taken away, anything can be taken away.

There is nothing else to add to the argument. It is cut and dried.

Agreed. But that's not good enough.

Right. And it is starkly scary that the 10 Amendments to our US Constitution are not good enough anymore, huh?
