Birth Control's Out, Vasectomies and Viagra Are In

As I'm sure you all know, Hobby Lobby won their lawsuit. This means that they will no longer have to cover certain types of birth control that they have deemed as "abortion pills" (despite having factual evidence disproving their claims) but will still continue to cover vasectomies and Viagra.

This hypocrisy does in fact prove that they have no problem supporting safe sex when it comes to men, but have every problem supporting women in their personal choices- a private choice that should be handled between a woman and her doctor, not her boss. And even though Hobby Lobby's owners preach about their concern with birth control and abortion, they will continue buying the majority of their supplies from a China, a country that has one of the highest abortion and birth control rates in the entire world.

Birth control has many, many purposes other than controlling birth. It helps with acne, diseases such as endometriosis, chronic ovarian cysts, and plenty of other things that greatly improve the quality of life for the women who rely on their birth control. Vasectomies serve one purpose and one purpose alone: to prevent pregnancy. Let the hypocrisy sink in.

It's upsetting and disgusting that we live in a world where our leaders would support such an insane idea that directly opposes women. As a Christian and a woman, I fully disagree with Hobby Lobby and their choices they have made in the name of Christianity and urge my readers to take their crafting somewhere else. I heard Michael's has a good sale this week.
