Hobby Lobby Still Covers Vasectomies And Viagra

Hobby Lobby -- now free to drop emergency "morning after" pills and intrauterine devices from its workers' health insurance plans -- has given no indication that it plans to stop helping its male employees obtain erectile dysfunction treatments.

The Supreme Court ruled Monday that the craft store chain, owned by evangelical Christians, doesn't have to pay for health care coverage of contraceptives prohibited by its owners' religion.

But pills and pumps that help a man stiffen his penis in preparation for sex are perfectly acceptable.

Evangelical Christians have long argued that life begins at conception, and therefore that medical procedures that disrupt the first stages of pregnancy amount to murder. In the case of Hobby Lobby, this extends to a woman taking pills such as Plan B, Next Choice or Ella, any of which would prevent her ovaries from releasing an egg that could be fertilized after unprotected sex.

Perhaps taking a note from Catholic Church's opposition to sterilization, Hobby Lobby also objected to long-term birth control methods such as IUDs, which can cost women up to $1,000.

But that does not explain why Hobby Lobby doesn't object to covering the cost of its male employees' vasectomies.

This seems like extreme hypocrisy to me.

And 16 of 20 forms of female contraception. Funny the stuff you come up with.

You're just too dumb to know what's coming after that SCOTUS decision - which will likely make you NaziCons even happier.

Yes, the Nazis are the ones trying to provide people with freedom to follow their consciences, rather than the ones trying to force people to do things they don't want to. That is brilliant and logical on a par with everything else you say . . . and that's not a compliment.
 
Those who believe masturbation is a sin?

I don't think the perceived sinfulness in masturbation centers around a belief that sperm are individual organisms.

Those sperm are all potential human beings.

Before long they'll be stoning women. That's the door the SCOTUS NaziCons have opened up.

vasectomies are covered so apparently they don't believe that---they are being allowed to follow what they believe. Just like women who abort

If they are truly Catholics they would be opposed to such operations, as they are birth control.
 
Again

How DARE anyone have a belief or a choice that is against a liberal stance or chanting point.. and how DARE anyone be against paying for something they do not believe in

My employer does not have the right to force their outdated religious beliefs on me.
