This is absolute ####ing bull####, and it's a travesty our leaders have permitted religions to decide healthcare, funded by taxpayer dollars. We treat dying dogs better than this. Why the #### do we have publicly funded hospitals that cater to ONE religion? How is that not discriminatory? Why are they so goddamned special? I know, I know...history. Well it's time to stop living in the past. ####ing sky wizards. Unreal delusions.
