It probably won't change your mind but it should change your awareness of what the real issues were in reaching the decision. The Judges words are the facts as opposed to the sound bites and rants of the talking heads you have listened to. The Judges were playing to the law - talking heads are playing to an audience they want to attract and/or keep.
[PS If you believe H.L. provides incomplete health ins for women because it will not pay the premium for 4 types of contraceptive care, know that the ACA also then provides incomplete health ins for women since it requires coverage for less than all of the contraceptive medications that are available to women.]

I don't know it all and don't know everything. I can be enlightened in many areas. However, I DO know about the Hobby Lobby fiasco. I don't need to read your PDF to know what the decision is. I do know about IUDs and contraception. So please don't demean yourself by saying I don't.
Yes, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Hobby Lobby. But what (also) doesn't sit well with me is that the ruling won because 5 Supreme Court MEN agreed with Hobby Lobby. These 5 Supreme Court MEN also happen to be CATHOLIC. Hmmmmm . . . Interesting, no???
Let's not lose sight of the fact that the ruling is solely based on opinion. The decision was not unanimous; they did not all agree. So it's the Catholic men who made the decision. I guess you don't see anything wrong with that picture. 
I will say again and always will: Too many things hapening in this world are against women. It needs to stop!
