In this case it is. Women do not get paid as much as men for the same job. Women are the ones who have to buy birth control (in general). You have put an unfair burden on one segment of the workforce and the government is attempting to even it out.

The law is there, the charities were able to follow the outline for qualifying as a religious org and being exempt from the mandate to provide birth control coverage. They didn't....it really is that simple.

A perfect summation of the case as it has been presented so far.
If the organization wants the protection of being a religious organization then they should do whatever it takes to make the criteria. If they can't or won't then they are not a religious organization and should not get any protection from laws that the church feels violates their doctrine. As Mavdog says, pretty simple.
