If Hobby Lobby’s owners win then hypothetically any Orthodox Jewish, Muslim or Hindu owner could prevent their company’s health insurance plans covering any prescriptions for medications containing gelatin.

This is a very dangerous road to go down.

Worse than that, if SCOTUS does indeed rule that businesses have religious freedom, then that pretty much upends the whole apple cart on just what sort of shit your boss can tell you to do on his dime. Your Muslim boss orders all employees to join in daily prayers to Mecca? Sorry, his religious beliefs take precedent over yours, now get to bowing!
