Some people apparently do not grasp that THEY are the problem.
one that wants the great pay and knows that they don't have to comprimise their morals. If they are allowed to place their morals over their job, they'll do it.

I don't know what his exact title was, but he was on front lines, so likely. But he volunteered as a medic because he was against fighting (of course on the lines he still shot the gun when push came to shove).

If they want to deliberately stir up troubles by picking an incompatible job, they're complete reta ----- er, not particularly wise.

Looking at it from a business perspective, willful noncompliance with the job is grounds for dismissal. At least it certainly would be at any job I've ever worked at.

Yes, it is grounds for dismissal, but if the employer is fine with it, then...?

Personally, I think that the government should just not issue licenses to those that don't live up to it, and should revoke or refuse to renew the licenses of those that already have them that don't want to live up to it.

Should we make a distinction, then, between a few, rogue individuals, and an entire chain making a business decision to not carry? The nature of dispensing potentially life saving medicine prescribed by a doctor makes the concept of a business's right to refuse service somewhat fuzzy. ( I know contraception isn't as critical as heart meds, but you know what I mean.....)

It's obvious there is a market for this. Some feel so strongly that they'd seek out pharmacies that made a point of not carrying contraceptives. (Although, I think it's a bit childish to act like you are going to burst into flames if you see a condom display...) If we really want to get technical, could this be obliquely, a Separation Doctrine issue?

So, does the pharmacy have the right to possibly countermand a doctor's prescription? Should we view this the same as a Christian bookstore, that certainly has the right to not carry non-religious books?

I'll have to sort out my thoughts on this.
