Midwives lose conscience case in Scotland

Here is a link to an article on the recent decision from the Court of Session in Edinburgh rejecting the arguments of 2 midwives who claimed a right to conscientiously object to being forced to supervise the carrying out of abortions. http://www.sconews.co.uk/latest-edition/16846/forced-to-supervise-abortions/ I have not been able to find a copy of the decision but the descriptions of the court’s ruling I have seen are quite troubling. The judge didn’t think the midwives’ rights were infringed because they weren’t required to have “direct involvement” in the abortions.
