Pro-abortion pastors from different “Christian” denominations distributed condoms outside a Hobby Lobby store to protest this week’s Supreme Court decision giving it and other companies the ability to opt out of the Obamacare HHS mandate that compels them to pay for abortion-causing drugs for their employees.
This comes after a NARAL board member suggested abortion activists have sex in Hobby Lobby stores as a protest.
The Chicago Sun Times has more on what happened:
hobbylobby27Christian clergy and activists from different faiths protested outside a Hobby Lobby on Route 59 Wednesday in protest of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision that says some companies can opt out of new health provisions for no-cost prescription contraception for women.
The gathering was organized by retired minister Rev. Emmy Lou Belcher of the DuPage Unitarian Universalist Church and the Rev. Mark Winters of First Congregational United Church of Christ in Naperville. The group distributed packets of condoms and contraception information to shoppers going into the Route 59 and 75 Street store on the Aurora side of Route 59.
“This is an issue about power, where employers control the most intimate details of their employees’ lives,” Belcher said.
Belcher said she was surprised by Monday’s Supreme Court decision. She said the decision was not a matter of religious freedom, but rather corporate control.

“This may be the religious beliefs of the owners, but employees are not required to pass a religious litmus test and that is essentially what the Supreme Court has dipped its foot into,” she said.
“It’s hard enough to find a job without having to vet the religious beliefs of your boss first,” said Cheryl Newman, of Naperville.
Some people accepted the free condoms, while others turned away and said no. One woman handed the packet back and when several feet away screamed back in defense of Hobby Lobby.
“I know them and they are Godly people!” the woman exclaimed.
LifeNews has written and will continue to write about the pro-life victory in the Supreme Court’s decision on Hobby Lobby and the pro-abortion side’s reaction to it.
We previously featured a cartoon that encapsulates the pro-abortion response in 10 seconds. Here is another one.
They should have distributed aborticents instead of condoms. At least then, there would be no question about whether they understand the evil they are siding with.
These people are intellectually confused and emotionally overwrought. It makes them useful idiots.
The terms "Unitarian" and "Christian" are mutually exclusive.
That is what I thought.
Morons love to show their stupidity to the world.
It’s like a Idiot Pride Parade
First, notice women pastors are acting foolishly. They always seem in support of unBiblical causes.
Last, this is epic stupidity. One can buy condoms in stores. Hobby Lobby employees are paid above minimum wage & can afford them.
The Bible doesn’t allow for Christian pastors.
Same goes for UCC. Especially TUCC.
Sarcasm or what would the bible allow?
They're attention whores on a budget...oh, and they're disgusting, too.
Universal Unitarians would object strongly to being lumped in with the term "Christian pastors!"
Oprah Christians. These are the ones who believe all roads lead to heaven.
Pray America wakes up
Hobby Lobby is paying for more kinds of contraceptives than these so- called “Christians” even know how to use. Foxes in sheeps’ clothing. Will do just about anything to undermine or ridicule faith.
Not only are these ministers morally wrong, they seem kind of stupid. They simply cannot think logically. They cannot grasp the very, very simple distinction between having the right to purchase something, and demanding that someone else pay for that something.
Time for some Nicaean-era justice on this heathen satanist
Salvavida probably meant ‘women pastors’.
You cannot be be pro-abortion and be a Christian it is simply that simple
LOL. Yes, you are correct. Tired eyes.
These people are crazy. Stark raving batsh*t crazy.
