to The New York Times, a case the Supreme
Court heard yesterday, involving a challenge to

contraceptives, “pits religious liberty against women’s rights.”
Similarly, last month’s controversy over an Arizona bill

homosexual and heterosexual couples alike was widely perceived as a
conflict between religious liberty and gay rights. Jacob Sullum
says both of these debates are more accurately described as clashes
between real rights and fake rights.
