Besides they're anti lgbt agenda the one in my town reportedly refused to help a family after it came out that the dad was an atheist. I'm an atheist and I don't like the religious being in charge of who gets help.

They have lots of skeletons in their closet too.

Assuming similar levels of exploitation and corruption I would chose the secular org over the religious one.
