See, you're going for mind-reading here. You are presuming on the motivations of the people who want exemptions to keep from having insurance coverage for contraception. You are assuming that because YOU would be okay with these exemptions being extended to any other medicine because of any other stated religious belief, they are too. And hey, for all I know, you're right about that. But in arguing what you think they're thinking, you are flatly denying what they are DOING. They are opposing mandatory insurance coverage for contraception. That's it, full stop. They might be opposing it because they want to avoid having to offer insurance coverage for other services but that is not something that is self-evident from their actions. You CANNOT SAY that this is not about contraception when contraception is the ONLY mandated service that has sparked this response.
