[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to make your own choice. But know at Catholic schools, how the school "embraces other religions" is to show how they're inferior but still worthy of studying.[/quote]

We would never do Catholic, instead we provide other enriching activities through family vacations, an au pair who takes the kids after school 3 x a week (on trips to museums, or other activities), summer camp experiences and spring break trips to a diff state each year.

Education starts at home, it does not begin in school.

We don't want our children to only think in a linear way. [/quote]

Seems only one who is thinking "in a linear way" is the PP, who claims they would "never do Catholic" when they clearly know nothing about Catholic schools.[/quote]

Your poor kid has an idiot for a parent.

What exactly about religion in Catholic school is your kid learning? Not the bible. Just literal BS ie pro life garbage, and non science. 
Support for pedo priests over children.

Indoctrination more like it.

At least at Public school they are teaching more academics.

Perhaps I should clarify that no religious schools would be okay for us. You are your child's first teacher, education and learning does not take place in a corporate structure. It takes place at home.  [/quote]

You do you.  We like having the reinforcement of religion in the classroom. It actually expands their education beyond a public school experience where religion can never be discussed.  Those kids are missing out and getting the type of education that might make THEM think in a linear way.  My kids learned about all religions, not just Catholicism.  Sadly not allowed in public schools.

Religion can be discussed in public school.  One religion can’t be forced or supported over all others.[/quote]

Name a course in public school that spends the entire time discussing religion, ethics, social justice, or theology.  I am not talking about one course in HS, but an ongoing class that occurs every single day.  Public schools are missing this very important element of an hour a day to decompress and think about things that really matter.  I love that my daughter will have this hour a day for the rest of her education through high school.[/quote][/quote]
