Why the fuck would your employer be forced to buy you contraception!? My God! America, what the fuck is wrong with you?

Why are corporations treated as churches now?

So your religious freedoms stop at churches do they? Just because you run a business or a corporation (which does not even necessarily mean you are a big powerful evil greedy entity, ma and pop operations regularly incorporate to protect their personal assets through corporate holdings) doesn't mean you should be forced to provide for those who work for you with contraceptives or anything else for that matter other than a mutally agreed on wage and providing as safe a work environment as possible.

Corporations are made up of people just like any other organization. Why should they be treated any differently in regards to their Constitutional rights? I know, I know because money right? Yeah Gates, Buffet, Soros they have more money each than a majority of the registered corporate entities of this country and they spend tons of money on political causes.

No corporations aren't a person. They are however, people.

Exactly. People, as in plural. Whose to say that everyone in a corporation follows the same beliefs as the board of the corporation does? With this law, unless you are at the top level, you must adhere to the religous beliefs of your workplace. It's not just the birth-control at risk here.

If a corporation decides to identify itself as Islamic, can they force employees to wear hijabs? If a corporation is Hindu, can they force employees to stay away from beef? If a corporation is Christian, can they force everyone to have a Bible?

An ordinary person cannot force their beliefs on anyone. This ruling is saying that if that "person" was corporation, they can.
