Thank you the bolded bit in your quote was the only point I was trying to make, not pointing fingers, cuse as I've said, Im terrible.. Like I said, I believe Christians and non-Christians to be as hypocritical as each other, the only people who aren't are those who conciosuly try to...

Look I'm not pointiing fingers, far be it from me, I'm bloody more than hopeles when it comes to mistakes, hypocrisy, misunderstanding, jumping the gun and whatever else I was jsut surprised, I've heard the vocal criticism of religons, and the vaocal criticism of their members for...

Hi Weg, When did we live in a religious society ? I'm just expressing surprise, that some would vocally critiscise something for the religious beliefs they hold and the implications of them, but then for reasons nothing to do with the religion, they want to baptise their kidds to get them...

So religion really has nothing to do with religion anymore for many of us .. I know many peoppel who were baptised, grew up in very religious households, but when they had kids decided not to baptise them. PArents got over it, they werent blind to the previous 20+ years of their childrens...

Look I think it's a good thing for people to attend good schools and I believe those in charge of religious schools want to help in the way their religion intends, they are being honest, which goes with the fact that the religious schools dont usually exclude non members of their church...

Look, I am aware that non regliious people exist and that they are invovled in different ways in things that the chruches and lrelgions run.. I just wonder about the :"hypocircy" of it all when so many times "Ethics and morals and integrity" are spoken of in the same sentence sort of thing...

Baptism is somethinh that happens in the Christian chruch and it baptised you in the name of God as a member of that chriuch, which is belevied to tbe the right way to cojmmune/live with etc God. You dont get baptised into "generic religion",. you get baptised into Roman Catholicsm, Orthodoxy...

I suppose I am focussing on the reliogious bit of the relgion part of the discsission If the school is a relgious school, it is focussing on providing an educaiton based on it's religion and the overall national etc curriculum Betting baptised you take on the religion, the god parents...

Sure they might be empty But why would people want to send their kids to a school which teaches their kids things that they do not agree with ? We're suppsed to be conscious adults, you don't find that odd, at all ? Why would you bapiste your child, make them members of a religion, if...

The point of religious schools is to teach the way they believe things should be taught Why if you dont agree with them, that God creted the world in 7 days, etc, woudl you wnzat to send your kid to one of these schools ? If religious schools are that much better than irreligous or...

Correct CAtholic is the name of christiaintiy, denoting it's universality Roman Catholic is the denominnmame given to 1 denominiation which brkoe away form that; Then others broke away form the Roman Catholic church Not everyone came moved to "under" the Roman Catholic church when...

When you say the Catholic religion, are you refering to the "Roman" Catholic church ? You do realise that the "Roman" Catholic church is a denomination of Christiaintiy., it is not the pinnacle of it so to speak right ? Being christian, obviously it didn't exist before Christ - right ...

What perspective did it give you ? And about 'whom' ?

Nope.... some Roman Catholics will know.... (Edit: we cross posted )

Does anyone actually know what the word Catholic means ? (from a non roman catholic here)

Yes, fair enough

Only IF you choose to send them to such a school right ? If I choose to buy new S CLASS MERC'S, I'd be up for hundreds of 1000's like the rest of the world, I see a case of "it is what it is" I guess

One would think that almost too obvious !
