Just a note on this: ED pills aren't against any Catholic moral as they aren't contraception. They're a medical treatment, and that's why there's no outrage. I know that wasn't the main point of your post, I just thought I'd clear it up. I get that, I was more worried in this case about the implication of "paying someone to have sex" than with Catholic dogma in this case, since I'm pretty sure no one would argue against the fact that ED pills are largely used to help with intercourse/masturbation and they are covered by insurance. I don't think the church in particular cares if it's paying people to have sex (obviously preferably within the confines of marriage), it's more about paying for things it considers immoral. I think in that way the religious feeling on the issue is separate from the right-wing stance on it where they object to paying for any kind of sexual aid in the first place.
