You support the governor forcing pharmacists to dispense abortion drugs?

I support following the law and the dictates of your employer.

If an individual has such a strong ideology that would prohibit him from doing so (especially knowing the situation in advance), then that individual needs to find an employer who will be more in line with those ideologies.

The employer's not the problem. It's the state that's causing the problem.

Just because someone declared it to be legal doens't mean it's moral.

How about supporting laws that allow pharmacists freedom of conscience?

Do you support requiring all prospective doctors to perform abortion, just in case they 'need to' in the future? Would your message be, "pro-lifers should get out of the medical profession!" Did you forget about standing up for what's right?

If an individual has such a strong ideology that would prohibit him from doing so (especially knowing the situation in advance),

Knowing what situation in advance? That the governor might come along some day and declare an "emergency rule" requiring all pharmacists to dispense abortion drugs?

And you support that, and think everyone should go along or go quietly, move their family to another state and not make a fuss?

I would remind you that there have been well-known instances in recent times in some other countries where doing just that would put your immortal soul at peril and risk having you brought up on war-crimes charges.

That would be fine, except that we are dealing with professions in which the state grants a regulated monopoly to a guild (usually called a professional society). It would serve the interests of the secularizing left very well if serious traditional Christians were excluded from all health-care professions. Your position, and regulations of the sort in question here, ultimately lead to that circumstance.
