Oh, they&#039;re still <em>for</em> them. Just as long as they, y&#039;know, stay over there. Where they don&#039;t have to ever see, hear or speak to them.
So you can be flat-out, factually and scientifically wrong about a physical fact, but if you call it a &quot;sincerely held religious belief,&quot; the court has to take it at face value? I&#039;m pretty sure the Courts&#039; repeated dope-slapping of the creationists establishes a &quot;rule of reality&quot; that keeps deliberations and decisions out of the religious rabbit hole.
Chick-Fellate has a better argument for sincerely held religious beliefs. At least they close on Sundays (it&#039;s one of the Commandments!) and -- not 100% sure of this -- accept prayer as a form of payment.
Hobby Lobby, OTOH, was kinda grouchy when I went in on Sunday and tried to buy <strike>porn making</strike> art supplies by reciting <a href="http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/\?search=Psalm%20122&amp\;" target="_blank">Psalm 119</a>. I said any money I&#039;d pay would go into boner bills for ... well, who knows?! Some married man helping a sugarbaby make ends meet, no doubt.
I think the Court will display the wisdom of Solomon: Scalia will take a box of diaphragms, split them all in two and pass out halfsies to all the offended Hobby Mobster employees.
Clement said (basically), &ldquo;Hahah, no, silly lady, don&rsquo;t be ridiculous, we&rsquo;re not trying to restrict real health care, just lady health care&rdquo; because (actual quote) &ldquo;it&rsquo;s so religiously sensitive, so fraught with religious controversy.&rdquo;
Translation: &quot;This is about the rights and privileges of <i>Christians,</i> duhh. If some damn Jew or Muslin tries to refuse to pay for medical products made from swine, such as hemoglobin, insulin, or thyroid medication, then that will be a HORRIBLE violation of the separation of church and state, and the outrageous machinations of Jesus-killers and terrorists.&quot;
Am wondering what will happen when a Christian Scientist who owns a business refuses to offer health insurance at all.
Scalitomas are a disgrace. Seriously, those scabrous crusty dicks need to GTFO of anything called &quot;Supreme,&quot; including pizza places, 60&#039;s band reunions, and monuments to Eisenhower.
<i>Mother Jones</i>, still bringing it after all these years. Good on &#039;em, David Corn&#039;s irritating telepresence notwithstanding.

Justice Sotamayor does not drink bleach, but rather fine tequila. Mixed w/ Scalia&#039;s tears.
I thought Sharia Law was the boogeyman...?
What a bunch of fucking wankers.

To be fair, there is nothing about hypocrisy in the Ten Commandments.
Pretty shoddy by Hobby Lobby. Time to call out the bobbies.
