Mark Tooley notes perspicaciously in "Religious Freedom & Religious Authoritarians" [ http://juicyecumenism.com/2014/07/01/religious-freedom-religious-authoritarians/ ]:

"Kudos to the churches and other religious groups that, believing religious liberty and conscience are sacrosanct, oppose the Obamacare HHS mandate compelling religious employers to subsidize contraceptives and abortifacients.

"More battles are ahead. But yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling would have been impossible without the courage of Hobby Lobby’s Green family, who refused to subsidize abortifacients, and groups who backed them. They include Becket Fund, the Catholic bishops, the Southern Baptists, Orthodox rabbis, Missouri Synod Lutherans, National Association of Evangelicals and National Religious Broadcasters.

"One United Methodist ethicist urges boycotting Hobby Lobby until it exemplifies “moral consistency.” Other sanctimonious nags have derided Hobby Lobby’s supposed hypocrisy for opposing abortion while failing to have achieved full sanctification. Others dispute the company can claim to be Christian, although it is the owners who are Christian and wish to uphold their convictions. Supposed theological sophisticates claim only individuals can be Christian, not companies or other groups, except possibly churches. These critics are typically hyper individualist liberal Protestants who locate ultimate truth in the solitary, empowered self.

"Critics of Hobby Lobby are supposedly VERY concerned about access to contraception. But contraception is cheaper and more readily available than ever, often free. The Green family didn’t object to subsidizing contraception per se, only several drugs that kill human embryos, i.e. abortifacients.

"The HHS mandate and its zealous supporters of course are very well aware of these facts. But their actual agenda is wielding the sword of state power against traditional religionists who dare to defy the ongoing secularist Kulturkampf. They do to just want to insult traditionalists, they want to steal their liberty and break their will.

"For the moment, the First Amendment still stands against these aspiring authoritarians who dream of a world sanitized of a religious counter narrative to their own power. Not every knee has bent to Baal, and Lord willing, liberty for all will yet survive the ambitions of these wannabe cultural dictators."
