The American Pharmacists Association, with 50,000 members, has a policy that says druggists can refuse to fill prescriptions if they object on moral grounds, but they must make arrangements so a patient can still get the pills.
This seems logical.[/quote]
So if I work at McDonald's and some fat-ass comes in, I can refuse to serve her but recommend that she go to Burger King? I think over-eating to that degree is immoral (deadly sin - gluttony).[/quote]
Sure, if they want to employ you.[/quote]
Wow.
Do you really think that the CVS pharmicist told his prospective employers that he was going to make moral judgements on the types of drugs people wanted, and then unilaterally act on those judgements. :lol:
And you call me an ideological extremist.[/quote]
What are you talking about? I never said he told his employer. My response was just to indicate that if they still wanted to employ you knowing that, then I don't see a problem. No problem with them not wanting to employ you because you're not willing to do what's required for the job, of course.[/quote]
OK it's getting silly at this point, so let me summarize:
How many mainstream pharmacy employers in their right-minds are going to employ someone knowing that they are a religious extremist who isn't going to do a required task?
Answer: None
The truth is that this guy never told his prospective employers that he wasn't willing to do part of the job he was applying for, and now they could be getting pulled into a lawsuit.
I'm sure this guy really believes in his cause, but if he can't check his private religion at the door then he needs to go out proactively find another line of work. After all, if I'm a Hasidic Jew, I'm not going to go out and get a security guard job that requires me to work Saturdays (Hasidic Jews are forbidden to work on Saturdays). That would be irresponsible, and furthermore just plain stupid.[/quote]
Dude, I'm agreeing with you, just take it. In fact, unless he has let his employer know that he has some problem doing parts of his job, I see no problem with him being fired on the spot.[/quote]
Cool! And it only took us 5 posts to find out we're arguing the same point.

It's the beauty of the Internet(s)!
