What is it going to take for people to see these wolves in not so subtle sheeps' clothing and that this is a very dangerous road to go down?
Is all this worth the fake promise of on average a few hundred dollars more a year that you really are never going to see?
Once again, I think religion is great if it works for the individual and it dos for me. I just cannot see how people advocate puting their own personal beliefs into law and then forcing people to adhere to them. That violates the very basis on which this country was founded.

I don't see it that way. Just as if a woman should have the right to choose said options; then those medical professionals now have the right to choose whether or not to perform those procedures. And if you can't get it done by one person (an abortion for example), then go somewhere else. Nothing wrong with that.
Not that I work in the medical field, but I also maintain a certain right to choose within my line of work. If a "customer" gets out of line, curses, or is abusive in any way it's my decision on whether or not to walk away from that situation. I get to use my own better judgement. This seems like the same thing in my book.
