Today we heard much discussion on the "Rights of Conscience" bill, sponsored by Representative Doug Quelland (R) from district ten. This bill would allow pharmacists and health care providers to refuse to participate in abortions or in the dispensing of life-taking drugs like the morning-after pill, as it is known. This bill does not stop anyone from getting these products and services. Rather, it would simply allow anyone who believes an unborn child to be a human life to refuse to end that life through their own efforts.
It has nothing to do with religion, but a person's "conscience" as it applies to the decision to end a human life (assumedly against the will of the human whose life is in question).
