Court Rules Hobby Lobby Can Be Considered a Religious 'Person'
- bediger4000 13y agoThis is all well and good, but what happens to Quaker or Mennonite owned businesses (or to Quakers or Mennonites)? Those sects (at least) have a very, very strong anti-war, pro-peace-making component. For at least 500 years, the Mennonites have been persecuted for not joining armies, etc etc. Do the Quakers and Mennonites get to object to parts of laws because "their religion is against it"? If not, why not? Why is Hobby Lobby's religion more privileged than the Society of Friends or the Mennonite Church USA? These questions need to be answered, and quickly.
