BREAKING: Hobby Lobby allegedly fires worker for being pregnant

This just in from our friends at RHRealityCheck.org who has done an outstanding bit of investigative journalism exploring further Hobby Lobby hypocrisy. RHRC reports that Flowood, Mississippi Hobby Lobby employee Felicia Allen was about to pop and not surprisingly asked for her medical leave.  Instead Hobby Lobbycanned her after her baby was born and then tried to fight her filings for unemployment.

Hobby Lobby ProtestWhat would Jesus say, folks?

Not that it matters, but everyone in Ms. Allen’s Hobby Lobby store agreed this was messed up, as I’m sure many of us do.

So just to clarify:

  • Hobby Lobby believes it is against their religion to pay for a woman’s birth control,
  • Hobby Lobby believes it is totally fine to invest their pension plan in the pharmaceutical company that makes the birth control they oppose their employees using,
  • Hobby Lobby believes it is OK to pay for vasectomies and Viagra for male employees, and
  • Hobby Lobby does not believe it should give family leave to a pregnant mom and allow her to keep her job.

So, basically, your religion is not Christianity.  It’s actually just the Church of the Asshole.  Read the whole story at RHRealityCheck.org – it’s worth it.
