Isn't Hobby Lobby a corporation as opposed to a school? I suspect that if it is, they have a right to make their own rules and support whatever they want. 

That doesn't mean I would work there- I don't philosophically agree with any belief system being pushed at me or required. What I think is my business - live and let live.

No Anne companies don't have a right to make their own rules, are you serious?  Besides they are a public company, with shareholders, you think the majority stock holder has a right to support whatever they want, even if it's not related to their business?  I don't.   Besides the only thing this has to do with hobby lobby is the owner petitioned the school district to offer the course, and sent them curriculum designed for it.

Hey, you got me researching- thanks! From what I read, the Supreme Court is on the verge of issuing a decision re: rights of corporations to not provide birth control as part of their insurance policies. The decision should be interesting, given how conservative the Court is now.

Hobby Lobby run by evangelical Christians is one of the two main challengers.
