I saw a story on the local news tonight that mentioned the fact that pharmacists are allowed to refuse a refill of a prescription if the pill they would be giving is against the religious beliefs of the pharmacist. The pill that was most mentioned was the renowned "morning after pill" that stops a pregnancy after possible conception has taken place. Now I am not in favor of abortion or anything, but I think it is absurd that a pharmacist can say, "No, I will not allow you to take this pill because it is against MY beliefs". It is not the pharmacist?s choice as to whether the recipient should receive the medication; it is that of a doctor and the patient. What if it were something the person needed to survive and they said I couldn?t give this to you because it is against my religion. Give me a break.

Amen.

The moral of the story: people take themselves far too seriously.
