Dr. James Dobson Sues Over Abortion-Pill Mandate

Teresa Neumann : Dec 11, 2013  Elizabeth Sanchez – Charisma News

"The government shouldn't be able to punish Americans for exercising their fundamental freedoms. Any government willing to force a family-run Christian ministry to participate in immoral acts under the threat of crippling fines is a government everyone should fear." -Matt Bowman, Alliance Defending Freedom

James Dobson(Colorado Springs, CO)—He may have retired from some things, but Dr. James Dobson is still clearly active in the theater of Christian rights and social justice.

According to a report in Charisma News, the illustrious doctor has filed a federal lawsuit against the abortion-pill mandate.

The lawsuit, filed by Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), challenges the legality and constitutionality of the mandate.

"The government shouldn't be able to punish Americans for exercising their fundamental freedoms," said ADF senior legal counsel Matt Bowman. "Any government willing to force a family-run Christian ministry to participate in immoral acts under the threat of crippling fines is a government everyone should fear."

Said Dr. Dobson: "Our ministry believes in living out the religious convictions we hold to… as Americans, we should all be free to live according to our faith and to honor God in our work. The Constitution protects that freedom and the government cannot force anyone to act against his or her sincerely held religious beliefs. But the mandate ignores that and leaves us with a choice no American should have to make: comply and abandon your religious freedom, or resist and be fined for your faith."
