Next time he has a medical emergency, tell him he CAN’T go to ANY facility that was founded by a Religious Organization, even if they are secular now.

In Boston alone, that would preclude St. Elizabeth’s, The Carney, Beth Israel, New England Deaconess, New England Baptist, and several others.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Most Charitable Organizations involved in Disaster Relief were also founded by religious people.

I have read that the first penitentiaries were organized by religious folks so criminals could do penance for their crimes against society.

Before that it was jail, the stocks, hangman’s noose, or banishment.
