To make your analogy closer to the situation would be to have one doctor diagnose a patient and send to another doctor for treatment then have the 2nd doctor object on moral grounds. For instance: Pregnant woman has broken arm. Doctor diagnoses it and sends her to hospital for treatment. Doctor at hospital objects becauses she is unmarried.

My analogy is a good analogy...as many doctors refuse to perform abortions...for moral convictions...even though it is legal...just as many doctors refuse to perform assisted suicide/euthanasia...even though it is legal in some states.
Just recently the wife of a friend was denied service for diabeties by a doctor unless she agreed to quit smoking...when she refused...he would not accept her as a patient.
