In reply to Cthulu is lame. It doesn't really matter at this point but you're being pretty vague about your context here. What is your context in this situation?

Understand all the arguments of discrimination and all the doors for corruption. But I just keep going around in circle with this. It’s a deal of “work exchanged for capital”… If you no longer agree with the exchange, move along… But the problem is, Hobby Lobby is found in religiously dominate areas… Try to find a Hobby Lobby in Southern California, however it’s a guarantee to be found in The South. Finding employees for Good ol Hobby Lobby will never be a problem. The first time I found out how religious this corperation was was in 2007, stationed, at a Mississippi military base. I went to a hobby lobby on a Sunday morning, and when I tried opening a door and to my surprise the door was locked. A maintenance person happened to be on the inside by the door, angerly shouted the glass, “what are doing?. We’re closed! It’s Sunday!” With a creepy cult, bah humbug, condescending authoritative patriarchal manner. I don’t know quite how else to explain the experience. I was really embarrassed and rushed to my car and went on my way. I’ll never forget that though, it was just one of those little moment memories that stick like yesterday. I was Christian back then but did my studies from home because it was hard to find a free spirited hippie vibe church in Mississippi and I actually forgot it was Sunday. I bought my cross stitch thread online from then on…. I’m back in California now, and I enjoy Joanne’s craft store. And I lived happily ever after. The End 🙂

In reply to Cthulhu21.

And killing adult humans is a “last resort” if they don’t do what you want, right?

Calling something a “last resort” doesn’t make it okay.

In reply to Jane in DC.

It’s more of a last resort if you didn’t take birth control.
(FYI-some animals do eat their own offspring in extreme cases so don’t tell me that it isn’t scientific)

In reply to Secular Pro-Lifer. Agree completely. I don't understand why atheists think abortion is okay. It makes no scientific sense to kill your own offspring.

“If you think your god prohibits certain types of birth control, then don’t use them”

Faulty logic. That’s no different than saying : If you think your god prohibits murder, then don’t kill people (but don’t interfere with people who think murder is okay).

Abortion is not “reproductive health care” — it’s the intentional killing of a viable human being. I oppose abortion and abortificants as “birth control” on purely secular grounds. If it’s okay to kill unborn humans because they are simply inconvenient, why not allow the mother to inspect the child right after birth and kill the baby if it doesn’t turn out okay? Abortion shouldn’t be used as a form of birth control.
