[quote=Anonymous]Fundamentalists would be just as offended to be equated with Catholics as you as I Catholic (I’m assuming) are to be equated with Fundamentalists. Regardless, it’s simply fact that the religious requirements and general atmosphere are much stronger and stricter at most Catholic schools (and presumably at a fundamentalist school, although I’m not familiar with any) than at most Episcopal schools. Just compare the high school religion course requirements for O’Connell vs SSSAS or NCS, for example. The percentages of non-Catholic students at Catholic schools is far lower than the percentage of non-Episcopal students at Episcopal schools. You don’t have to be Catholic to go to O’Connell, but you’re going to take a Catholic religion class every semester for four years (ex: The Sacraments; Jesus, the Redeemer; Living as a Disciple of Christ in Society). At SSSAS, you take a semester course on the New Testament, two 1-quarter Ethics classes, and a quarter class of choice that doesn’t even have to focus on Christianity (ex: American Religions, Religions of the World, Religion and Music).[/quote]
