Whether or not he chose fo fill the prescription (because of his own religious beliefs) he had no right legally not to transfer the prescription to another pharmacist. He has the right to refuse service, I'm assuming, to anyone. However, that doesn't give him the right (in my opinion of course) to keep that person from going somewhere else. He in essence "hijacked" the prescription. I'm sure it wasn't hard for her to get another prescription from her doctor, but the pharmacist was in the wrong.

I wonder sometimes though how people with strong religious beliefs can hold so firmly to one (no birth control) and completely ignore others (thou shalt not judge). I'm not saying he should have filled the prescription, but he should not have passed judgement on her by not letting her get it filled elsewhere.
