[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am actually Episcopalian, but my spouse is Catholic. I have no doubt a Jewish or other non-Christian would feel more comfortable at an Episcopal or Quaker school than a Catholic school. PP did not say this, they equated Catholicism to Fundamentalism. My point is that Catholicism is a far cry from Fundamentalism and it is ignorant to lump them together. Anti-Catholic sentiment and prejudice is alive and well in our country. [/quote]

I didn’t take it as equating the two in terms of beliefs or anything. Just that both may be similarly pervasive or strong or whatever in terms of the religious environment and how comfortable (or not) that might be for someone of a different faith. The religion is a much greater part of the experience.

Also, as far as Episcopal and Catholic being similar, Episcopal is a spectrum. Low or broad Episcopal services are very unlike Catholic services. High Episcopal and Anglican services are much more similar. In my experience, the Episcopal schools tend to align more with the broad Episcopal tradition. [/quote]
