Expanding exemptions on contraception mandate nothing to celebrate

MGB: There is no religious exemption on employees receiving contraception.  They still get it for free. All the Church and other religious organizations got was the ability to put their heads in the sand about the fact that their employees have this right.  As for material cooperation with evil, there is no evil to cooperate with.  Life effectively begins at gastrulation, not fertilization.  There is an obligation to protect life if it could exist, but embryologists will tell you privately that gastrulation is the marker.  The issue was not religious freedom but religious power, this time over employees.  That power has not been allowed.  There is nothing in the policy to prohibit the employees from getting the coverage and most will if they think they need it. Out of all of the medical issues covered by insurance, this part is small potatoes, so the material cooperation itself was trivial.  This was entirely a publicity stunt on both sides.
