[quote=Anonymous]The issue with the law is that it includes private businesses.  The bigger issue is not the Christian florist or Christian baker refusing to supply a gay couple's wedding. (this is awful and abhorrent but doesn't endanger anyone) The issue is the Christian pharmacy, the only one for 20 miles in a rural area of Indiana refusing to fill the prescription for Truvada because homosexuality is a sin and against his/her religion.  The same pharmacy also refuses to stock Plan B or birth control pills because birth control is against his or her religion.  That is placing a substantial burden on others because of your religion.  There are places around this country still served only by the small independent pharmacies and not CVS or Walgreen's.  The Federal RFRA was for limiting the STATE encroaching on religious freedom not individuals or businesses claiming a right to religious freedom.  The Indiana Law is written much more broadly than other state RFRA around the country.  [/quote]
