If you linked to Dr. Champion, she made it clear that the issue at the heart of this problem was female reproductive health. She made no mention of religious freedom exemptions being an option for any medication or procedure that didn't involve the female reproductive system. So did you link to the wrong thing or did you bank on me not actually reading what you linked?
I'll quote it again, since you must have missed it the first time:
"This is not about politics, this is not about contraception, and this is not about depriving women of health care. Rather, this is personal. This is about my daily life as a physician, a Christian, and a Medical Services Director. Whether I will be able as a physician to practice medicine within my belief system. Whether Calvin College will be able to continue its historic tradition of living out the faith it teaches. A government that is of the people, by the people, and for the people, should not force the people to violate their consciences."
