~~~In something called "the Bethesda Medical Centre" it seems strange if mention of Christianity is seen as unacceptable.~~~

Oh, really? How so? Bethesda is an Aramaic name, derived from
בית-חסדא
Hebrew for House of Grace. Can't see why the fact that it happens to have been mentioned in one of the Gospels should have anything to do with it.

Do only Christians live in Bethesda, Maryland? Not last time I was there, they didn't.
