[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow! Just read through this.  I have had kids at Catholic schools, public school, and secular private schools.  There were cliques at all three.  This is human nature, and it is regrettable some are attributing this kind of cliquishness to religion.  In fact, the public ES we used was the most cliquish.

I have no idea where this idea comes from that Catholics feel superior.  If there is one thing that really gets drummed into Catholics it is that we are all sinners.

I have never once heard a Catholic insinuate in any way that Protestants are not Christians.  That would be abject ignorance.  I [b]also have never seen a Catholic initiate a discussion of the Pope with a non-Catholic. [/b] That would be socially inept like an American initiating a discussion about our president with non-Americans.  Fine to discuss of course if one is asked.

I also do not know any Catholics who feel mistreated or excluded from society.  Many do feel, however, that while it is politically incorrect to criticize most mainstream religions, Catholicism, along with Islam and Mormonism, remain fair game.  Kind of like mocking white Southerners is still okay.[/quote]

You obviously haven't met my mother-in-law.  Cannot stop shoving Catholicism in our face.  "The Pope said this . . ".  "I'm off to a Pilgrimage".  "Today at daily Mass . . . "  "Here's some more Catholic regifts that you non-catholics have no use for."[/quote]
