[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know there is no perfect formula. I know families with 8 kids who all went to the same super catholic college and then all married 8 other Catholics and had many more children. Why did it “stick” with these 8 kids? There are also countless stories of priests and nuns that barely went to church, partied hard in college and then joined the religious life. [/quote]

I know of a family like this. For them, they sent all their kids to Catholic schools in this area and everyone knows the same people and spouses came from that social circle - not entirely, but one kid married their sibling's best friend. [b]Remaining Catholic is as much cultural as it is spiritual. [/b]All of their kids go to Catholic schools and know the same people too. And so it goes.[/quote]

If your world is Catholic, then there is a lot more inertia keeping you Catholic.  But there's no guarantee, even then, and it can be much harder for someone suffering a real crisis of faith.[/quote]
