religious groups should never be connected. I've never understood why lots of them are, at least where I grew up. Science is real, religion is based on "faith". In fact, shouldn't a catholic hospital just put a sick person in a room and say, "alright, just lay there for a while. God'll fix ya right up. Just have faith."

Leave hospitals to the doctors and nurses and scientists. Leave the churches to the church folk.
