Gilardi v. HHS

Getting into a legal fray is not the primary purpose of this blog since anything that necessitates a law passed by sinners to regulate the conduct of other sinners and to be judged by sinners is necessarily a law that is flawed and unsatisfactory in its application, enforcement and resolution.  No amount of discussion concerning any such law will remedy its defects.  The primary purpose of the blog is to discuss matters that I believe are universal, like Free Will and Divine Truth that hopefully would lead both blogger and reader closer to God, not laws that are country-specific conceived and passed by insignificant, small-minded hypocritical sinners under the powers of Satan.  This is an exception.

For a reader in Greenland, as if there is one, what follows will likely not hold any interest.  Be that as it may, Gilardi v. HHS [1] is a United States case that has highlighted a bigger issue than those addressed by the judges' opinions that I find disturbing, namely the inclusion of contraceptive coverage by the United States government in its insurance scheme.  Based on my understanding, the government of the United States now requires certain employers providing health insurance to their employees to include contraception as part of the coverage.

Here is my question: When has human sexual intercourse been considered a disease that has to be treated because it may lead to fertilization and child birth so that contraception would be necessary as part of a health insurance scheme mandated by the government to prevent such disastrous occurrences?

If human sexual intercourse is not a disease, then it should not be part of a health insurance program.  Even if it were a disease, is it not better to treat the disease by abstention which is not only free and safe but also one hundred percent effective?

If human sexual intercourse is a disease, possibly viewed by those advocating contraception as part of a health scheme, then these creatures -- obvious by-products of the disease or of failed attempts in preventing it through contraception resulting thereby in their births -- ought to be hospitalized and receive antemortem treatment.  Is any treatment going to be effective for these creatures who otherwise would possibly not have been born had their government-mandated contraception been in place before they became a zygote?  I wonder how remorseful these creatures must be to have been born and to have used their lives to pass a law to prevent pathetic lives such as theirs from having ever been created.
