I discuss the thinking behind the assertion of a right to contraception in a post for the Georgia Family Council site.
My argument in a nutshell: many of the people who argue for such a right don’t simply mean a right to be free from others’ interference; they mean subsidized access. Our government could legally create such an entitlement, or acknowledge it as a positive (as opposed to natural) human right, but the constitutional right to religious freedom has, in our polity, a higher status.
There’s nothing earth-shattering here, but too many people just don’t get it.
