Would a non-Catholic feel comfortable at Bishop Ireton?

Troll. Anyone who assumes that the collection of nut jobs posting to DCUM (myself included) are representative of any community is seriously mistaken.

OP, obviously the key here is just to spend some time at Ireton. I am sure they can put you in touch with some families. Sadly it appears than some Catholic schools contain at least a few Catholic families who will do their best to drive out anyone who is different, but equally clearly (& thankfully) that is not the case at all Catholic schools.

Not at all. I'm just shocked that some Catholics really think this way and have the poor judgment to splash it out on DCUM.

Or a Catholic basher making the whole thing up. The Poster is so over the top it I'd clearly fiction?

Exclusive? Sure. Why do you think there are Catholic schools?

And Jewish schools and Christian Schools and even Historically Black Colleges?

Just had to chime in here to an older post. It was assumed that all Protestants applying to BI would do so only for the tuition cost. Actually, we are applying b/c we are looking for a religious education. We believe in having morals and the Bible being taught in school. The truth of the matter is that there are more Catholic high schools than Protestant high schools.

Of course there are. Don't you know why?
