So rather than inconveniencing yourself, you would rather inconvenience a company and infringe upon their right to choose how they run their business because you are too lazy to find a job that fits your standards and your lifestyle. So no you expect a company to conform to fit your views instead of the other way around.
You still misread my post. Read it again & tell me where in that post I said anything about telling a company that I work for how to run their business?
While I am appalled by the SC ruling and its justifications and implications, if HL isn't covering some BC because it considers them to cause abortions, then Viagra and vasectomies aren't hypocrisy, as they don't cause abortions. However, giving corporations personhood and cherry piecing a subset of a subset of a single benefit in a health insurance plan and giving it religious impetus is a very steep and slippery slope. I agree that a comprehensive single-payer plan is necessary, and always was, but this Congress and current Supreme makeup isn't gonna play. Maybe it'd be a bit better if a white person were the Democrat as president. (I still say that the only reason Obama could win at all is because his skin color isn't related to the slavery days, and yet look at the hysterical objections to him and policies).
It still wouldn't work IMO. The problem is the government needs to either stay out of the medical industry, or take over it completely and get rid of the insurance companies. Trying to skirt the line between the two isn't going to work.
The religious exemption does not only apply to HL. Catholic employers will object to diaphrams and sterlizations also. Reading comprehension. Why is a employee having a D&C???? Abortion or a medical condition. Religious employer will want to know WHY. So an employee has to tell boss their medicaly problems.
No one has to tell anyone anything. Pay for it yourself. No questions, no answers needed.
Why do people think contraception is anyone else's responsibility?
Go out and buy insurance that covers contraception. No one owes you insurance that pays for it.

If you want them to offer something that they don't want to offer, then you are telling them how to run their business.

Is there a reason that you are deliberately misreading what I posted? Again, tell me where in that post I am telling my company how to run their business? Where did I say anything about forcing a company to offer a certain benefit? Where?

Reading comprehension. The Pill has other uses besides birth control. A D & C does also. So if a virgin young girl needs the Pill to regulate her periods her DAD must pay for that because "pay for your own danmed birth control"? If a woman has tumors in her uterus and requires hospitalization, pay for your own damned "birth control" surgery? Should women also have to pay for their own damned Labor and Deliver also? If you say yes to that one, maybe women should not have to pay for not only your damned Viagra, but also not pay for you damned prostate surgery?
I think this goes beyond birth control. Too many MEN are ignorant of woman's health issues, and don't give a damn about females. There isn't a War on Women? Sounds like it to me.

The belief that a company should be forced to offer something to an employee is telling them how to run their business. If you agree with this practice then you are agreeing with telling someone how to run their business. If not, then why did you even address me since I was talking to someone who actually holds this view?

They have other pills that work for this.
And technically yes a woman should have to pay for her own delivery and labor (or her husband), either that or not get pregnant in the first place. This is why we have insurance to pay for things we can't pay out of pocket for. And this is why we should shop around and find the best insurance that fits our needs. If the one our employer offers doesn't work then we should shop around...like we do for everything else.
The bottom line is, the government should take over the whole thing and run it as they see fit instead of trying to force companies into offering benefits/services they don't want to offer.
