Per the court a corporation can decline to provide health insurance coverage for birth control if the owners object for religous beliefs. Justice Ginsberg called the ruling one of "startling breadth". Justice Alito clarified this ruling concerns only birth control.
Alito is very short sighted on this, I don't think it will be long before a Christian Scientist files a discrimination suit because they have to provide insurance for any medical treatment. Expect a Jehovah's Witness to do the same for ***** transfusions, and I'm sure someone else will do the same for vaccinations.
It won't stop there some racist who belongs to one of the Aryan Nation religions will object to hiring non-whites. Hell a Muslim can object to hiring Jewish workers and vice versa. Maybe a Jewish company can fire you for bringing a ham sandwich for lunch.
This may even open the door for companies to ask about an applicants religious beliefs. Now when looking for work you will have to look at the owners religious beliefs on top of all the other considerations. Apparently Justice Alito didn't think finding a job was difficult enough.
