Go back and read what I said. We do not want religious dictates, Christina or muslim, do be defining what our healthcare looks like.

I read it correctly the first time. You want atheists to be able to force their beliefs on the rest of us by demanding us non-atheists pay for their preferred social customs, in this case abortifacents. That's no different than a muslim majority demanding we pay for female circumcision, one of the preferred social customs of many muslims.

A plan which matches the preferences of the seller and the buyer of the plan is not "conformed to religious dictates." It's a plan that recognizes the just liberty of the seller and the buyer. That's what we're arguing for.

Otherwise the State can force sellers to sell, and buyers to buy, services and products which neither the seller nor the buyer want. That is a dictate--- and that's what you're arguing for.

I like Christian healthcare, miracles and more miracles. I think we have the best healthcare going, who else has brought back the dead, or made the lame to walk?
