"Will religious employers eventually be able to refuse to cover pregnancies for unmarried women?"

Well that's the natural conclusion of this "logic", yes.

Only magical pregnancies will be covered.

Of course not. They'll just find an excuse to fire them "for cause". Two minutes late because she had to change her shirt after a bought of particularly bad morning sickness? FIRED!

It should be noted that I wrote this piece as I sat one row behind Madeleine Albright on a train from NYC to DC today so I was especially inspired.
