I don’t know about you, but I feel closer to God just thinking about it.

Plenty of services They do, and for the most part that insurance is available through the schools they attend. We have very few domestic students that have the insurance through the school, but most of our international students utilize it. The only ones that don't are like the ones from Saudi Arabia that are getting a free ride from their country.

RE: Evangelical college cancels student health insur. over birth control misinformation - bfine32 - 07-31-2015 The school is not required to provide insurance and they cannot based on their religious beliefs. They are also offering hardship funding to some students effected by this. Do people think the school is required to provide insurance or that it is a student's right to be given insurance? To me it's pretty simple. If you do not share the beliefs of the University go elsewhere. Why would someone want to go to a school that was not inline with their beliefs?

No, but it seems like that would be the "Christian" thing to do. That is the point. No one says the school is required to do it. But it just seems mean-spirited and petty thing for a Christian institution to do.

Then the school should just enact a rule that forbids the use of birth control by students and still provide health insurance. Why get rid of all the good involved in providing health insurance just over one minor issue? The Pope never said there was anything sinful about health insurance did he? Seems to me they are just being cheap.

You wouldn't catch me doing anything with Liberty. I'd go to one of the Anabaptist colleges around here like Bridgewater or EMU, but never Liberty.

How do you recommend they enforce that?

The same way they enforce all their other rules regarding student behavior. I am sure they have rules against using other illegal drugs in addition to all sorts of other behavior. So they just use the same techniques.

Actually it's my boss's daughter. Weird scenario, she and her sister are really religious, but their parents are not at all. It's usually opposite.

Perhaps if there wasn't such a thing as HIPPA and/or Patient-Doctor confidentiality.

That analogy might work if you were joining the church and then complaining about how they conduct themselves. |
