I am disturbed by the recent SCOTUS "Hobby Lobby" decision, but I will not be boycotting Hobby Lobby. Though I think HL's beliefs on contraception and abortion are very misguided and erroneous, I respect their right to hold those beliefs. I know that every one of us acts based upon our beliefs. That HL took their beliefs to court, awaited a decision, and got what they wanted does not upset me. They, and I and you, have every right to do that very thing.
What profoundly disturbs me is the direction the current Supreme Court is taking us as a nation. What profoundly disturbs me is the growing popular opinion of what "Christianity" means, of what "Christians" believe. I am not angry at Hobby Lobby; I am disheartened that so many Americans celebrate the "Hobby Lobby" worldview. I am chagrined that so many of our elected public servants pander to this worldview.
Boycotting Hobby Lobby hurts their employees even more than their refusal to pay for morning after pills and IUD's. If you need to boycott, and I do, boycott today's Republican party...vote Democratic this fall. VOTE!
