I hate to bring it up, but this is ableist. Mental asylums are bad, there is nothing lucky about people being forced into them. There is a long history of abolitionist that led to their mass closure in the 20th century in the United States. From that continuing history we have numerous stories of how awful these places were/are, and an idea of the harms that ableism causes.
God doesn't exist, hell isn't real, but the way we spread that idea matters.
