First of all, although I do not know why, no JW, that I know of has asked for a plan for employees free of blood transfusions. <br /><br />But more importantly this is a case where those asking to have a relief of conscience must do so or be fined out of either ministry or business. The Catholic Church and other Christians are providers of so much good which is not done by anyone else: hospitals, schools, all kinds of charities and in fact the nuns who are a part of this story take care of the elderly. They will all eventually lose their ministries because of the fines they must pay if they are not given relief. That is not only horrific for them it is a terrible thing to happen to society.<br />I do not think there is that kind of problem for JWs although I suspect that they also believe that abortion is sin.<br />Another thought is that all Christians in their stand against abortion are not just standing for themselves; they are standing for defenseless life, for someone weaker and smaller and helpless.Viola Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09146967423654966140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-18143461013057737012014-01-10T16:37:59.338-08:002014-01-10T16:37:59.338-08:00If the government wants everyone to have free birt...If the government wants everyone to have free birth control they can distribute it in other ways. They do not actually have to force a Catholic (or other Christian) entity or business to provide that in any way. This is not about access to birth control. It's about power and control by the state over all parts of civil society.<br /><br />John Erthein<br />DeFuniak Springs, FLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-37135067285948093842014-01-10T10:50:12.420-08:002014-01-10T10:50:12.420-08:00What if the Hobby Lobby folks were Jehovah's W...What if the Hobby Lobby folks were Jehovah's Witnesses and their plan would not pay for blood transfusions?<br /><br />John McNeese<br />Ponca City, OKAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-76953145659894059162014-01-09T19:28:39.931-08:002014-01-09T19:28:39.931-08:00Thanks Reformed Catholic, I didn't know that a...Thanks Reformed Catholic, I didn't know that and I have a hunch a lot of other people don't either.Viola Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09146967423654966140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-3125857874377674912014-01-09T19:25:03.448-08:002014-01-09T19:25:03.448-08:00Well, at least she got the part about Rush Limbaug...Well, at least she got the part about Rush Limbaugh right. But I wonder, how far are you willing to go to protect religious rights against women's rights?
