Of sex and consequences
In a recent decision, the Supreme Court of Canada unanimously agreed that:
Accident insurance is not comprehensive health insurance,” Mr. Justice Ian Binnie said for a 9-0 majority today. “Mr. Gibbens contracted a sexually transmitted disease in the ordinary way through sexual intercourse.”
Replace STD by pregnancy and imagine the same quote in an abortion-related decision. Funny. How warped has our understanding of sex become when we consider STD to be par for the course but pregnancy to be an unintended consequence?
