<div dir="ltr">Paul,<br><br>I never said you remarked about me or said anything about me. I don't think you did. I find your statement offensive because it attempts to reduce women's reproductive rights and the impact of that control to women trying to get free contraception. 'Those women just want to have lots of sex and have someone else pay for it.'<br><br>I'm not going to write a treatise here about how a woman's ability to control her own body impacts much of her life and her employment options. If you don't think that's true, or don't think it's important, then I doubt I'm going to change your mind. But for some context, here's Limbaugh talking about Sandra Fluke:<br><br>'The conservative radio host <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/29/rush-limbaugh-sandra-fluke-slut_n_1311640.html" target="_hplink">sparked outrage</a>
on Wednesday when he called Fluke "a slut" and "a prostitute." He
alleged that she was "having so much sex" that she couldn't afford
contraception.<br><br>He <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/01/rush-limbaugh-sandra-fluke_n_1313891.html" target="_hplink">went further</a>
the next day, adding, "if we're going to pay for your contraceptives
and thus pay for you to have sex, we want something for it. We want you
to post the videos online so we can all watch."'<br><br>I don't know if that's the company you want to keep, but that's what your comment looks like to me. <br><br>You talk about taking a libertarian position, but you're jumping in with the people who want to restrict contraception because they want to limit women's choices and options. This is happening as states do their best to make abortion as inaccessible as they can; do you remember the attempt by Chuck Winder to pass legislation in Idaho to require an intrusive ultrasound examination for women? <br><br><br><a href="http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2012/feb/27/pre-abortion-ultrasound-bill-introduced-idaho/" target="_blank">http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2012/feb/27/pre-abortion-ultrasound-bill-introduced-idaho/</a><br><br>Maybe you prefer a narrative where you're a libertarian bravely fighting for individual rights, but you're placing yourself with the repressive folks who are still fighting a culture war to restrict womens' options.<br><br>And the thing is, the law didn't force people to sacrifice their religious beliefs. It made a legal fiction, created to limit personal liability, provide contraception as part of employment compensation.<br><br>Tell me this: How is it the corporation's owners get to limit their personal liability for their own financial protection, yet demand the protection of their consciences? They want the personal advantage the corporate form provides, yet they claim their personal religious beliefs are being imposed on. Sorry. You want the personal benefit the corporate form provides? Then take the bitter with the sweet, and don't impose your religion on your employees. <br><br> Scott, do you really think this is just limited to Hobby Lobby. You do see that it's a way for other corporations to make the same claim? Which right is being restricted? The right of a woman to control her reproduction. That right.<br><br>Sunil<br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2014 18:17:01 -0700<br>From: godshatter@yahoo.com<br>To: sunilramalingam@hotmail.com; vision2020@moscow.com<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] A fine point, perhaps.<br><br>

I made no disparaging remarks about you personally. I didn't try
to imply that you had something wrong with you because you thought
a certain way, I made no insinuations about you in any way. You
may have found it offensive, but you cannot categorize it as an
attack on you.<br>
<br>
So which right *is* being restricted? Since we are on the subject.<br>
<br>
What if it was a company objecting to paying for homeopathy
treatments? Shouldn't employers have a lot to say about what is
in the benefit packages they provide to their employees?<br>

without getting personal?<br>
<br>
In response to your question, when I look at my latest pay
stub (posted for the 3rd of June), I see a line item for "<span class="ecxfieldformattext">Employer Contribution for
Benefits". It's about $350 in my case, paid by the
employer per biweek.</span> I also see employer amounts
for "Pre-Tax Health Savings Account" (their match for the
amount I'm putting in my HSA), and "Long" and "Short Term
Disability Coverage". Also Medicare, but all employers have
to pay FHI if I remember correctly.<br>

employer pays. I don't see a problem with a
small group of "close-knit" people with similar

against their religious beliefs. Especially
when the consequence is to pay for a specific
contraceptive yourself. It's not like they are
objecting to open-heart surgery.</span></p>

Roe recognized a

creates religious
rights for legal
fictions, and
restricts the rights

people. HL is not
about restricting the
power of government

or perhaps I
should say, a
predisposition,
to adopt a
certain
philosophical
approach to
legal issues
may be shaped
by private
values that we
trust and hold
dear. In
light of the
Supreme Court
decision
supporting the
Hobby Lobby
owners refusal
to provide
forms of birth
control they
claim to be at
odds with
their
religious
beliefs, I
wondered if
the court was
persuaded not
by legal
arguments but
by their own
religious
affiliations.
Were any of
the five male
justices
associated
with religious
groups that
uphold the
doctrine of
patriarchy,
i.e., do they
attend
churches that
deny women
ministerial or
priesthood
roles. Guess
what? Justice
Roberts,
Justice
Scalia,
Justice
Thomas, and
Justice Alito
are Roman
Catholic. </span></p>

contrast, when
the decision

the nine male
justices were
members of
main stream
Protestant
churches.
There may or
may not be a
direct
correlation
between
religion
affiliation
and legal
opinions, but
it is my firm
belief that
unearned
gender
privilege
nurtured in
the cradle,
and deferred
to in the
church
certainly
creates an
atmosphere
that
celebrates and
bestows unique
privilege for
male members.
And, what
could possibly
more be
patriarchal
than
controlling
women’s
reproductive
choices?</span></p>
