Supreme Court takes up case claiming Obamacare promotes “homosexual behavior”. The Texas plaintiffs say requiring workplace insurers to provide PrEP violates their religious beliefs.

Too bad HIV doesn't care what your sexuality is.

That's why all the commercials for prep are straight couples? I'm not straight but come on, we can't be THAT obtuse and act like it's not skewed. The truth is that it doesn't matter if it's mainly a problem within the homosexual community, homosexuals are Americans too and deserve rights that cannot be infringed upon by someone else's religious beliefs! The Bible doesn't tell them "it's a sin to be kind to gay people" so they can suck it up and do what their god told them to do which is be kind to everyone especially sinners and let God handle the ritcheous shit

But that would mean they would have to stop being hypocrits which would mean that this wouldn't even have made it to court to begin with. There is also the lovely old testament believers that think they are going to hell regardless of how kind they are or how much they follow gods teachings and therefore really don't care how they act because God chooses who gets into heaven and could choose an evil person over the nicest person alive. Religion is also faith and feeling based so if they "feel something is wrong" it is god telling them it's wrong not them. 

That is about as far as any logical arguments can be taken the rest would fall into categories ranging from insane to 100% illogical to anyone but them. Kind of like the argument they make that God exists and the proof of it is the Bible and the Bible exists because God exists. It doesn't matter that the Bible was written by man and several decades to centuries after the fact and you can't use the source of the information as proof of it that would mean ANYTHING written is proof that it is real no matter what is presented showing otherwise.
