I know I’m probably preaching to the choir here, but there shouldn’t be any religious hospitals, or schools, or, actually, any religion at all.
A first step would be to remove all public funding for hospitals that are refusing to provide medical care.
And while we’re at it, GPs. In the city it might not be a problem if your GP refuses to prescribe contraceptives, but if you’re out in the country with no GP within a 6 hour round trip, that sort of thing can be pretty significant. If you’re receiving Medicare subsidies, you need to provide all relevant healthcare, not refuse on the basis of your own personal non-medical beliefs.
Amen to that.

They were initially set up in good faith - if we ignore that its just another tool for indoctrination, sure. And if the nuns etc hadn’t set up those schools and buried all those children in the grounds, then the soil there would be less fertile.
Faith can be good for people. But so can truth and evidence and fact, so maybe we should focus on those things that are real.
All forms of religion are absolutely indefensible in this day and age.
