An appellate judge — a conservative appointee of George W. Bush — has upheld the Obama Administration's rules to require free insurance coverage of birth control. She ruled that corporations are not the same as the person who owns them (the very basis for creating a corporation), so compelling a corporation to do something was not the same as compelling a person to do so, especially in the field of religion. Further, based on Supreme Court precedence, a corporation cannot claim a religious liberty, as that is (for the time being) solely the property of humans and expressly religious organizations.
Sounds right to me.

“Fundamentally personal” matters of faith are uniquely human concerns. It makes little sense to say that an auto parts company is Catholic, or that a chain of crafting stores are evangelical.
So, this means I shouldn’t go into the local Hobby Lobby and ask if they are a sacramental or non-sacramental church? BTW, David Green doesn’t bother to answer critical letters.
Ask if they are a post-dispensational milennialism store or a pre-dispensational milennialism store.
