Just because a company, religious or otherwise, employs a person does not mean you get to dictate their health care. Could you imagine a society where that was the case? Would employers be allowed to monitor employees interaction with their doctor to make sure none of the employers principals are being infringed upon.
It would be a society in which some employers could dictate no vaccines for certain diseases, no Viagra for unmarried men, no blood transfussions, no medicines that contain alcohol, etc.
Employers employ people. They do not own them. They cannot fire them for health care actions they do not agree with, for personal actions they do not agree with, for religious beliefs they do not agree with. Unless of course they are a religious organization serving a religious denomination. Then they have all those powers.
