He became a pharmacist to save lives, not to take them. There's the ethical implications in addition to the religious ones when prescribing abortion meds.

Interesting. I bet he refuses to fill Viagra prescriptions because he's too busy saving lives. I bet he doesn't ring up milk and candy from the shelves because he's too busy saving lives. I bet he religiously objects to ring up condoms as well. Oh, and if you're not married, good luck having him ring up that sexual lubricant for you.

If he really wanted to save lives, then he needs to fill the prescriptions that doctors prescribe. You know, the ones that are medically trained, have seen, examined, and diagnosed the patients bringing in those prescriptions?

This pharmacist isn't a doctor, isn't her doctor, hasn't seen this woman, and hasn't diagnosed her to determine this medication wasn't "life saving" or even if its use was against his beliefs. If you read the article, the woman already lost her pregnancy and needed this medication to remove a dead fetus from her body. Sounds like an extremely important medical issue to me.
