If not, are you saying Christians can't be pharmacists?

It's against their teaching...

Steve: Someone would HAVE to hire them, because discriminating based on religion is illegal. By the logic that Catholics can opt-out of filling birth control prescriptions, shouldn't other denominations opt-out of filling any drugs at all?

If it compromises their faith, no, they shouldn't become pharmacists.

You state "Christian Scientist" and then say, are you saying
"Christians can't be pharmacists." Your question makes no sense. Most Christians are not "Christian scientists."
But if any person, for whatever reason did not believe in meds, why would they ever be a pharmacist? And who would hire them to not do a job?

Being a pharmacist is not against their teaching's. A Christian does what they feel is right in their own lives and a christian knows we are not to judge others, only God can Judge.

If they aren't going to dispense drugs, they shouldn't be pharmacologists.

The flaw in your logic is that no one would hire one such as this.
