Actually, a small correction: the suicide hotline connected to the story is from the UK, not the USA.
It was actually one of the first crisis hotlines not just in the UK, but also in the world. It was founded in 1953 and the organization's name is the Samaritans. It was also founded by a priest!
You can look this info up on Wikipedia.
I’ve met that kind of priest. Good folks, they understand that their job is mostly just to help people and that the religious part is window dressing to that.
A good person can be a priest, but not all priests are good people.
Well yeah, but part of the theoretical job is supposed to be doing good things for people
