    Where is the line?

    If I'm a fertility doctor do I have the right to say I won't inseminate Jewish women if I say that it is against my religious beliefs? Or what if I meet a couple and I don't like them because they're pagans? Can I refuse to help them have children?

    Seriously, it isn't the doctor's place to decide who to treat based on their own personal prejudices.
