So we are going from the not-so-bright Sowell to the radically stupid Goldberg? I can see this is gonna be a good day.

Courts in two of the 20 states that offer exemptions to contraceptive coverage for insurers and employers, New York and California, have found conscience clauses like the HHS interim rule affecting only houses of worship to be constitutional. In 2000, Catholic Charities of Sacramento v. Superior Court of Sacramento County, the Catholic Charities of Sacramento filed a lawsuit against the state of California, challenging the Women’s Contraception Equity Act. The Act requires that California employers include prescription contraceptives in their health care coverage and prescription plans. Catholic Charities did not fall within the provisions of the act’s religious employer exemption, and argued that the Act therefore violated their First Amendment rights. The complaint was rejected by a lower court, a decision subsequently affirmed in 2004 by the California Supreme Court, which upheld WCEA’s constitutionality, and stated that not only does Catholic Charities of Sacramento not qualify for the religious employer exemption, but that the act serves a “compelling state interest of eliminating gender discrimination.”

If you are in touch with him, tell him we don't want to impose our values on him. We aren't making him get an abortion, nor use viagra; we're just giving him the opportunity to let his insurance pay for it, if circumstances makes him change his mind.
