re: #133 austin_blue

Hobby Lobby doesn’t want to pay for IUDs or Plan B because they prevent the implantation of a fertilized ovum in the uterine wall. Traditional birth control pills aren’t a problem for them.

Does this make a difference to anyone?

(A_B playing the devil’s advocate and asking Scalia questions which will surely occur in open court.)

Short answer: no.

Longer answer: the decision of which form of birth control is used should be between a woman and her doctor. That’s it.

Longest answer: even “traditional” birth control pills work in part by preventing implantation, in the unlikely event that ovulation has occurred. If that’s the exception they try to carve out, then how long before they strip out “traditional” birth control pills as well?
