The company is free to fire the pharmacist if they so please. If they don't want to, the pharmacist is free to perform his or her duties in a manner he or she deems appropriate, and the customer is free to go to a different company for their prescriptions. I don't understand what's hard to understand here: there is no "right to buy things" or "right to force people to do things they don't morally agree with." And, no, they shouldn't choose another job - that's like saying a cardiologist shouldn't be a doctor because he's morally opposed to abortion. (Interestingly enough, they're actually working on that as I understand some medical schools force med students to perform abortions.) The fact is, there are plenty of reasons to be a pharmacist, even when one is opposed to certain drugs.

I don't want other people forcing their morals on me and I certainly won't work to force other people to go against their morals because I don't agree with them.
