Sorry, what does the United Church of Christ have to do with this woman's "church"?

From wiki:

Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), in full the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations in North America, is a liberal religious association of Unitarian Universalist congregations formed by the consolidation in 1961 of the American Unitarian Association and the Universalist Church of America.[2] Both of these predecessor organizations began as Christian Unitarian and Christian Universalist denominations. However, modern Unitarian Universalists see themselves as a separate religion with its own beliefs and affinities. They define themselves as non-creedal, and draw wisdom from various religions and philosophies, including Humanism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam, and Earth-centered spirituality.[3][4] Thus, the UUA is a syncretistic religious group with liberal leanings.

Similar idiots were protesting today in Bangor, Maine on the street in front of the Hobby Lobby store.

About 20 lefties. I saw it on the news tonight. Mostly fat, fugly women along with moonbat “men.”

When TEA Party people or gun rights people protest something, they are rarely shown on the news.

Hobby Lobby is not preventing anyone from using whatever form of birth control they want to use. Just that they object to paying for certain forms of birth control.

Unlike most business, Hobby Lobby is closed on Sundays, so they certainly don’t put the almighty dollar ahead of their beliefs. You don’t give up all your rights just because you form a corporation.

I suggested my wife go into Hobby Lobby while I went to the Post Office. It was a new store and we had never been in one. She ended up being in there for over an hour. I thought the store was very impressive in terms of layout and display, but full of phony but authentic looking “antique” and “distressed” “country” items from China. Doing a bang-up business with middle-aged women. Not my cup of tea, but more power to them.

If you don’t want a Hobby Lobby, don’t get one.

Nation of Outraged Wimenfolk

They defended Bill Clinton on charges of Rape, Workplace Sexual Harassment, and intimidating women who’d dare speak out about it because he supported their agenda on abortion.

They have no “gravitas”.

Minister and Clinic Escort: An Interview with Rev. Kathleen Green

Sally Steenland: I would like to focus on your work as a clinic escort in New Jersey. Can you paint a picture of what you do and say a few words about why a woman going to a reproductive health clinic would need an escort in the first place?

Kathleen Green: The picture is one in which volunteers arrive outside a clinic very early in the morning before the first patients arrive. The escorts are mostly women, some men, of varying ages and backgrounds and faith communities. When we arrive and gather together, we put on vests that identify us very clearly, to those who are working at the clinic and those who come to the clinic, as clinic volunteer escorts. We position ourselves on the sidewalk, which is right outside the front of the clinic. Women come from both sides of the sidewalk and from across the street, and so we are all along as a very obvious presence as escorts.

Our main purpose is to make sure that any woman who wants to go into the clinic can do so safely and with support. The women that come to the clinic are not all but are mostly, I would say, women of color. Many are from low-income households, and they come with their companions, who are boyfriends or husbands. We’ve seen women come with their mothers and grandmothers, with sisters and friends. So we are seeing quite a diversity of people who are choosing to come there for health care services.

***Protesters handed out leaflets to those entering and leaving the store, listing “7 reasons NOT to shop at Hobby Lobby.”***

They got paint, brushes, canvas, easels, drawing equipment, frames, leathercraft tools and lots of other goodies.

That is why I SHOP AT HOBBY LOBBY! Now if they just had a better selection of paints....

“No worries, they’ll just take all of those jobs somewhere else.”

Probably; that area is in the crosshairs of the Latino invasion of North Jersey, and they don’t do Hobby Lobby. The Anglo hags are fomenting their own disappearance from this Earth, while all around them Hispanics are breeding like rabbits...

“I am so independent and empowered I need my male boss to pay for my chemical abortion.”

The deranged rantings of women cast aside by their menfolk; no families for them, just recreational sex for the better-looking ones and loneliness for the rest...

There is no limit to the demands of the demented picketers.
If they must have recreational Sex they should consider how to handle the expense of such fun.
Hobby Lobby only chose not to pay for Abortifacients which are considered a form of abortion ,Get over it.
Think before you open yourself to Health Liabilities.

Just went to the site to see if there was one near me. There isn’t. But I’m not surprised that they’re attacked for another reason - all the girly, womanly stuff being sold. NOW must have a cow thinking of all those little girls making ruffled aprons.

And the sex for the better looking ones lasts just about as long as the fertility they suppress. By middle age they wind up lonely too.

The Unitarians were an offshoot of the UCC. The UCC (not to be confused with the more conservative Church of Christ) is also dead liberal, along with PCUSA, ECUSA, and ELCA.
