Yet they have no problem paying for Viagra.

I will never wrap my head around this logic.

What's not clear?

The Lord commanded Adam to be fruitful and multiply. Viagra helps make that possible.

Maybe I believe that God took away that function from certain people for a reason. Why should I pay for them to artificially get it back? No Viagra for YOU!

Or maybe I believe that gluttony is a sin and so obesity treatment and/or diabetes treatments is against my religion and shouldn't be covered? (1 Corr 3:16,17)

Or maybe I believe that rehab should never be covered by insurance since drunkenness is forbidden in the Bible? (Eph 5:18)

And lets not cover infections from accidents/carelessness, or lung cancer from smoking, or skin cancer from sunbathing, or vision care/contacts, or any number of things that could remotely be tied to vanity or mistreatment of your body (temple of God).

And diseases that are hereditary. God said the sins of the father will be visited upon children (Exodus 20:5), so clearly that person's ancestor's did something bad against God and these diseases are his will. Why should I pay for insurance to rectify this?




/sarcasm off

Using insurance coverage to force one person's beliefs on someone else is absolute bullcrap. It's insurance. YOU don't have to partake or utilize it or participate if it violates YOUR beliefs. But forcing me to suffer for your religion is asinine. And I, personally, will fight it to the bitter end.
