For one, they say 'you may not use your health insurance for certain things, for religious reasons.'

And I kind of suspect they may not 'will' your employment to continue, if you please them not in other ways, on religious grounds.

Ah yeah, those "Good Old Days".

I can hear "The Yellow Rose of Texas" playing now.

So are you still going around resenting anyone making you treat 'those people' like human beings as good as you?

It's natural enough to resent someone making you do something, but it was important. Those people ARE human beings as good as you.

That's a total LIE

This has nothing to do with employor and employee relationship.

It has all to do with business owner and government mandates.

Stop your bull shit proaganda lol

Not nessaseraly, and as a business owner I do not have to server someone. Perhaps you want slavery back in this country.

I'd suggest that this and some of the other viewpoints in this thread could certainly be examples of religious intolerance.
How exactly is it that corporations have religious beliefs? IMO, they are an inanimate construct incapable of belief and undeserving of treatment as people under our constitution. What a crock of chit.

If you're going to cast aspersions, please do so in plain English. Who are "those people" who I've supposedly decided I'm better than?
