[quote=Anonymous][quote]t seems like people are missing the fact that there is no reqquirement for employers to provide any type of healthcare coverage. Although most companies do offer it these days, they only started providing it to be more competitive. Now, however, it seems like company-provided healthcare is the norm and an expectation, rather than a benefit. To me, [b]all the church is suggesting is that if it is providing or contributing to the coverage for its employees, it should be able to do so consistent with the values upon which the institution was based. [/b]It doesn't feel it should be obligated to pay for a benefit to others (that it really has no obligation to provide) that is inconsistent with that. Doesn't seem too out of line to me.[/quote]

This is exactly on point, which is precisely why everyone is choosing to ignore the post.  The Church is not telling employees that they cannot use birth control, they are saying that it is inconsistent with the teachings of the Church and they should not have to pay for something in direct opposition to its teachings.  Employees are free to use and obtain birth control from other sources and it is not the Church's business.  Jump on over to the Planned Parenthood thread and you can see all of the individuals who have received low-cost birth control from that organization.
