I feel we have explained it all already but on her birthday list she said she wants: A coherent and logically consistent legal argument explaining the Hobby Lobby decision (from the conservative viewpoint). I told her before I am not a lawyer and don't know all the legal ins and outs but apparently that's not good enough. So, I'm a little overwhelmed at the request. Anything here to help me out would be appreciated! Thanks!

Okay, ILG. If she wants to be really legal. LOL!

The real issue is not whether corporations of any type can ever claim protection under RFRA — sometimes they can. The issue is whether for-profit corporations can ever have enough of a religious purpose to claim that protection.
Hobby Lobby is a socially responsible corporation, judged by the deep religious beliefs of its owners. The court decisively rejects the notion that the sole purpose of a for-profit corporation is to make money for its shareholders. This fits perfectly with the expansive view of corporate purpose that liberal proponents of social responsibility usually advocate — except, apparently, when talking about this case.
