I do not believe he really loves others like a Christian should. I believe he is very judgmental and needs to learn some humility and compassion.

But that is just my opinion.

at this man.

Probably ALL men anyways.

Dobson who won't use the contraception coverage. HL has hundreds, even thousands of employees, many of who cannot be presumed to believe the way their employer's owners believe. I don't see them as the same.

They are banned from receiving 1 penny of benefit, including any emergency medical services. They must pay in full.

As the health care expenses will be higher.

That makes no sense.

Which is more expensive?

Women going through pregnancy or using contraception?

Do you really think it is a mission impossible to get contraception without health insurance? I have never used health insurance to get contraception for either myself or my partners and it is very inexpensive.

If they are not going to offer contraception or its use for other purposes and unintended pregnancies occur than the costs of health care goes up.

It is more cost expedient to keep pregnancies down. Family planning means planned pregnancies vs unplanned.

Contraception is very cheap. Go and buy some if you want it. Would you like bandages covered also? Health insurance used to be very cheap in the 60s because it covered things that you have insurance for -- major events that you can't afford. Now it costs a fortune because everything is covered. Is replacing a light bulb covered in your home owners insurance? If your car battery goes out does your car insurance cover it? Same difference.

but the next 22 years might cost you a lot.

But rarely is conception free. You pay for it in many ways ....

Including contraception in the plan reduces the cost of the insurance to everyone.

Bandages prevent infection.

Aren't you supposed to say "right wing talking points" or "you get your news from faux" first? I guess you go right for the end game...

was not a ministry, but rather a Christian organization because he wasn't a minister. He makes me sick.

whether through TV, Radio, or whatever...he probably qualifies as a church and can bypass the requirements on religious grounds. This is not the same as Hobby Lobby, a for-profit business.

Maybe I missed something, but I didn't think private employers had to follow ACA requirements if they were under 50 (?) employees.

Why would he need to go to court? Just to get precedent on the books?

I don't know why he is in court but courts do not accept cases just to establish a precedent. There has to be some actionable item that the court can rule on.
