Lutherans For Life (LFL) rejoices that the U.S. Supreme Court, in its ruling in Sebelius v. Hobby Lobby, upheld the constitution and protected religious liberty for all Americans. This was not a pro-life v. pro-abortion issue. People on both sides of the abortion issue and people of all religious faiths should be united in praising this decision. The decision, in line with the U.S. Constitution, limits the government from forcing others—in this case a company—to operate in such a way as to violate their religious beliefs. This is more than a victory for people of faith. This is a victory for the people of a free America. We are grateful for Hobby Lobby’s stand on their religious principles. Please join us in thanking the Lord of the nations for this ruling.
