Pregnancy not being a disease is irrelevant. These pills are not just for recreation. Much like viagra (which, as far as I've heard, no company has any moral objection covering) contraception is also used to deal with health issues OUTSIDE of sex and reproduction.

FYI the company this whole fiasco is about is paying for 16 contraception drugs/pills/whatever.  They are just refusing to pay for the ones that are basically pills you take when you find out your ALREADY pregnant that then kill the baby.  

So please don't equate this to viagra.

abortifacients, or the morning-after pill which merely prevents implantation?

If we're talking about the morning after pill, then the menstral cycle kills a lot more babies than that pill does.


Exactly!  The funny thing is that the morning afer pill doesn't even kill anything!  It just prevents the sperm from reaching the egg (Most people don't know that it takes days for it to get there).  We should start administering quizes about the subjects politicians are about to debate to be sure they actually know what they are talking about!
