Christian bigots want to turn you away from your pharmacy for being a sinner



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Read this. It's going to be a big issue soon, mark my words. What the article doesn't tell you is that this part of a larger scam the religious right has been developing for a few years now. Passing state laws, and I'm sure going for a federal one as well, giving pharmacists (and ambulance workers in one state) the right to turn you away for any moral or religious reason they might have.

In other words, the Christian Taliban now say you're oppressing them by going to your local pharmacy and trying to buy birth control pills, condoms, AIDS drugs, Viagra, and anything else that their velvet-dogs-playing-poker sensibilities can't handle. Yes, if some Christian Taliban chooses to be a pharmacist, they want HIM to have the right to turn you away at the drug counter for being a sinner in his eyes.

Now here's a thought. What about a Christian Scientist or someone who doesn't believe in medicine working at a pharmacy? After all, isn't it an affront to God that you don't believe He can heal your cancer for you? How dare you try to get your cancer drug prescription filled at the only pharmacy you have in small town America? Obviously you hate God. Do you have an STD? I'm sorry, God gave you that because you're not married and having sex - next in line. Propecia? Vanity is a sin - next. AIDS drugs? Fag.

In other worlds, Janet Jackson's nipple now invades your pharmacy. These bigoted fundamentalist Taliban freaks want to take over every aspect of our country and every aspect of our lives. It's time for some big progressive group to dump some serious money on fighting back, and hard.
