Indiana Jews use HOBBY LOBBY "religious beliefs" decision to guarantee abortions for Jewish faith

[RobDownSouth]

Hobby Lobby's slimy decision to not cover abortion for their employees due to "sincerely held religious beliefs" has backfired spectacularly in Indiana. A group called Hoosier Jews brought the lawsuit arguing their "sincerely held religious beliefs" permitted abortion. The state of Indiana argued that "abortion" was not a "required rite" by the Jewish faith, but was decisively turned down by the Indiana Court of Appeals, which argued the Burwell vs. Hobby Lobby case that the Supreme Court decided in 2014 superceded that argument.

Legal scholars applauded the ruling, noting that for now at least Religious Freedom cuts both ways (up until today Courts have held that "Religious Freedom" was the exclusive province of White Evangelical Christians). Experts did say the Devil is in the details, not sure how Indiana will make this exemption work.

I agree that is a good strategy although I misread the thread title and thought it said "Indiana JONES uses Hobby Lobby for religious beliefs." I was already to read about using the power of the Crystal Skull and the Ark of the Covenant to guarantee abortions.

Any legislation and politicians should be tossed out if biased by religion.

If the devil is in the details, does that mean Satanists are allowed access to abortions?

What a delightfully quaint notion.
Harkens back to the day when the US Constitution had this thing called the Establishment Clause separatin' Church from State.
That was before the dark times.
The Age of Alito, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch and Barrett is upon us.
We have one final chance at redemption in November 2024.

I don't understand how we got to this point. I mean, I understand how but will never grasp *why* it was allowed to happen.

And that ^ is when BabyBoobs (an absolute POS) isn’t exhibiting their personal transparently sociopathic gaslighting behavior while using women’s health and innocent children as political footballs.
