Someone's friends is not the same as the Marxist media. But just asking, when is the last time you saw a story of Christian co-ops on CNN? Ever?

If you don't want them, especially if you aren't married, then NO sex.

Covering pre-existing conditions isn't insurance. It's welfare. Would you expect to buy fire insurance after your home has burned down?
So if your last house burned down the next house you get can’t have insurance?

Post ACA, states retain the primary responsibility for regulating insurers. The ACA covers only the Ten Essential Services. The rest is on each state. No two states have the same regulations.

One state might mandate insurance cover ABC medication, while the next state does not.

Medical cost sharing ministries are NOT insurance and are not regulated. They have no legal obligation to pay a qualified claim.

Like everything, sooner or later one of these ministries will blow.
You just don't read. Samaritan cannot 'blow' because there is NO central pile of money. It's everyone sending money to each other.

Are there really Christians who think birth control is evil? I can't even.
Artificial birth control is against the teachings of the Catholic Church. it is immoral because it treats sex as a mechanical act that does not permit fully sharing and is not open to children. Birth control basically makes sex a selfish act.

“A few wayward priests bothering boys”?

You are repulsive. You support child rape.

But you can totally shove your condom free penis into anus of a schoolboy. That is fully endorsed, protected and supported by the Catholic Church and you.

You support child rape.

Let's stick to the topic, which is Christian co-op healthcare. OK?
