religious authoritarianism. It is extremely dangerous as a precedent. This is about dominance and suppression of women. The government and religious creatures really need to get their noses out of people's genitalia.

Kansas, for one example, wanted ANY individual to be able to refuse medical services in ANY setting to LGBT if they felt helping LGBT was against their religion. This will be sure to come back in Kansas IMO. We live in a country that is truly becoming more F'ed up day by day and frankly getting to be a frightening place to live for many.
