The California Catholic Daily features an article discussing the effort of the American Civil Rights Union and others to protect a private doctor's right to refuse to administer medical procedures that violates her religious convictions.
As described in the article, "Right to Refuse", a California doctor at a fertility clinic is being sued by a lesbian for that doctor's refusal to artificially inseminate her. Naturally, the ACLU and a slew of homosexual activists have lined up against religious freedom in the case, Benitez v. North Coast Women's Care Medical Group, et al, is now being heard by the California Supreme Court.
For our view, be sure to read Bill Otis's op-ed, "Another Type of Conscientious Objector."

Wait a minute! Didn't I recently read about a Muslim cab driver who refused to take a fare because they were carrying alcohol? I realize that this is not as grave an issue but is it not the same thing in principal? I think we have a double standard somewhere.
