[quote=Anonymous]This whole argument is kind of like the question:  Who belongs in church?  The those who follow the church rules or the sinners who don't?

I believe the pope just recently made a statement answering with the latter -- encouraging churches to welcome everyone.

I think OP's question is a very relevant question, even if you believe BI is primarily for teaching those who are Catholic.  OP needs to know what the school and the school community expect of her and her children so that she can make an honest assessment of whether she/they can comply.  Rather than casting doubt on OP's motives, why don't you just tell her what exactly is taught and what exactly the kids are expected to do in regard to religion and religious expressions.

If her kids are the only ones skipping the Right to Life March, that's something she might want to consider.  If her kids will be the only ones eating a ham sandwich on Fridays or the only ones who know nothing about venial and mortal sins, she might want to know that.
