NOM is saying religious liberty is being infringed because religious employers should be offering benefits to gay couples, and that people cannot be denied benefits. Now, it's kind of funny that the (presumably) Christian Right is arguing for religious liberty so that they can actively discriminate against gay couples. Where is the hypocrisy in this? Quite simple, really. Let us look to Jesus for the answer.
"As ye that men would do to you, do ye also to them likewise" (Luke 6:31)
I am just speculating here, but I doubt anyone would like to have benefits denied to them for a reason such as the religious beliefs of someone else. And I also find it ironic that Christians would therefore ignore the words of Christ Himself in favor of some epistle from St. Paul to the Romans.
