[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Despite the assurance from our friends in the south, I think a practicing Catholic is going to be more comfortable in the Northeast or Midwest. I'm not suggesting that there will always be problems in the south, but it's more comfortable when you aren't an object of curiosity [b]defined by tired stereotypes[/b]. [/quote] You and many of the other posters here are engaging in the same behavior. Yes, your statement does suggest prejudices against southerners' attitudes towards Catholics. For you and others, you're making statements that are untrue. Students at major colleges and universities of the caliber of Wake Forest, Vanderbilt, Emory, Tulane, UNC, UGA, are not going to view practicing Catholics as an object of curiosity. In such cities as New Orleans, Savannah, Tampa, Mobile, Louisville, Dallas, and Atlanta, there are many Catholics and yes--even Catholic cathedrals in some of them.[/quote]
