I think that this is absolutely ridiculous! Women have the right to take a form of birth control and we have past generations to thank for this! I think it is ironic that I came across this article as we just watched the film about the history of "THE PILL". Hobby Lobby may be Christian affiliated, however I do not think that they should be allowed to deny the use of birth control by not covering it in their insurance plans. Not every person working at this store is Christian and they should not be punished for something they do not practice!

I don't think employers should be able to pick and chose the types of services that their health insurance covers, religion or no. I think it would be interesting to note that no one is bringing up whether or not these insurance policies cover medications like Viagra. No one questions a man's right to be sexually active, but heaven forbid a woman chose to enjoy sex or (like many women do) use the pill for other medical problems like endometriosis. This whole Hobby Lobby nonsense makes me so mad.
