Most hospitals are profit-making organizations. Their
main concern is making a good profit from the people’s insurance, hmos, Medicare, and Medicaid. They do not really care about the wellbeing or health of their patients. If they get better it’s okay. The patient is released in the hope that they may have to come back to their care. It is much better if the patient has to stay longer. That is the most profitable for the hospital. Case in point: a few years ago I had an elderly woman who was my next neighbor. She was about 92 years old and lived by herself. We became good friends. At one time she asked me if we could have Sunday dinner at the cheap restaurant (Dennys). We of course went dutch with no strings attached. We shared a few personal details of our lives. She had had two husbands, both of which had died. On one occasion she told me that she had gone for her annual physical with her doctor and she said the doctor had told her that she had excellent health and could live to be 100.

A few months later, she developed a stomach upset and she decided to go to the hospital (I don’t know why). She went to a local hospital and after two or three days she was released. Unfortunately, whatever medication they gave to her had serious side effects and she had to go back to the hospital. Two or three days later, she was again released and sent home. Again, some medication had more side effects and she had to go back. My poor friend soon enough died, not of the upset stomach but from the medications given to her. I wish I could have sued the hospital, but not being a relative, I could not.

My advice to anyone is to please avoid hospitals at all costs unless there is a serious problem or emergency.

By the same token, churches are mainly money-making organizations. They are not necessarily concerned about the spiritual conditions of their parishoners. Most important is the contribution that the church may get. After all they must pay salaries, medical insurance, benefits and retirements, etc etc etc. tithes and special donations/ annual bishop’s appeal. They make an obligation to make a commitment for a good amount to be paid during the year . This can not be denied or failed to obey. A good portion of this money must be sent to the vatican that has a secret bank that no one can check or question, except the pope himself. The Catholic church is one of the most rich and corrupt institutions in the world! This has been published in the newspaper and television.
The church is excellent in controlling the mind of the Catholics. They have quite a few rituals that bring extra income. Marriage fee is more than 200 dollars, baptism, confirmation, extreme unction more money, even the people that are selected to give the wine and the bread have to pay for that privilege!
The church has created all kind of dogmas for the people, To name a few: Do not eat meat on Friday, go to confession at least once a year, go to mass every Sunday or else you are commiting a mortal sin! They make believe that a priest who is a celibate person and has no experiene of real life has the power and authority to forgive your sins!
Since the priests are denied of their sexuality, which I believe is unnatural and immoral, they can not forgive sins.
Only God can forgive sins. He sees you like you are. He
sees into your heart and mind what kind of a person you are!
When I was very young I became a victim of a parish priest that fondled me. Fortunally he did not go too far. I believe that all the priests are sexual deviants! If you read the Bible, you can learn that salvation comes from God. He sent his son Jesus to die for our sins! In order to be saved you only need to do few things:
Believe in God, Believe that Jesus is His son, Jesus
died on the cross for all your sins. You know that you are a sinner and need to repent (in your heart) and ask forgiveness to God. The only command that you must do is: Love your neighbor. Who is your neighbor? Every person that comes in contact with you in any circumstance and place! Amen!
