But again, forcing someone to do something they find abhorrent goes against everything this country is founded on. Doctors don't work for the government except in certain situations. Private care doctors shouldn't be told what to provide. If a doctor does not want to do abortions for whatever reason, it's not the government's job to say he has to. If someone finds abortion wrong for religious reasons, they cannot be made to violate their religion to provide it. Constitution is extremely clear on freedom of religion. Right to abortion however is not mentioned at all. So which right trumps which?
