Religious fundies bite. We have some up here who are screaming about our (Canada's) newly-passed gay marriage law -- they're demanding that religious officials and civil servants be allowed to REFUSE, without censure, to perform marriages if Teh Icky Gayness "violates" their religious beliefs. *rolls eyes* I mean, CIVIL SERVANTS too! My taxes go towards paying those people to perform their civic duties as directed by law... and if they choose not to carry out part of their job duties because of personal beliefs, they should resign and find another job.

That's exactly how I feel about the pharmacists-refusing-birth-control-to-patients issue, too.
