Indoctrination is amazing when you consider you are worried about children that aren’t even born yet. Have you even looked at Catholicism on the internet to see what it actually entails? I was raised a Lutheran and have since become a Christian by reading my bible and find the truth in Christ. I urge you to do the same unless you are afraid of the truth. The history of the Catholic church is one of murder and deceit as well as immoral atrocities. I base those statements on facts and not just rumors.
I agree; it was just a suggestion and I myself am beginning to wonder if Catholic schools are as good as they are hyped.
This is completely off the topic of the cost of Catholic schools, but I found this a curious statement, considering that I became a Lutheran decades after becoming a Christian--and I am still a Christian :-) I became a Lutheran, in part because I found Luther's teachings to be as close to the truth found in Scripture as anyone's, and much closer than most. What do you find in Lutheran teaching that diverges from the truth of Christ, and the truths found in His Word? It is not my intention to try to revert you--I am happy when anyone finds Christ, regardless of the Christian church--I am just wondering...
She's planning ahead, and you object to indoctrination? Rubbish! If the Roman Catholic religion induces people to think about their future and plan ahead ... Good for the Roman Catholic religion!

Yes, I have. Religions and systems of faith are interesting, even the ones I don't believe.

That statement is worse than merely false; it represents half truth, distortion, and outright fabrication. Shame on you.

LOL. YOu learned everything you know about Catholicism from the internet? Did you look at any sites that were written by Catholics? For Catholics? Did you read the Catechism?
Or just stuff written about Catholics by those opposed to CAtholicism.
Pretty sure I know the answer.
For the record: I’m not Catholic.
I am worried about the education of the nation's children even though mine are now successful adults who are observant in their faith.
Why am I worried?
Answer: Because my children and grandchildren’s votes will be swamped like tsunami by the indoctrinated low information voter if the nation's overall system of schooling its children remains intact.
It seems that your post is just a thumb jabbed in the eye of Catholics.
Personally, I admire Dr. Bianchi for his concern about his children's education and making plans now for their future. Good for him!

As someone that was raised Catholic, left the Church and then came back after serious study of both history and the Scriptures, I will say that you are wrong and I will pray for you. One final thought.
Oh goody. What is your version of Christianity? Are you one of those whose god is what they see in the mirror? I have met many many of those.
I’m glad you have found a religion that doesn’t have any sinners in it.
Yesterday the Catholic Church fed over a million hungry people world wide. It will do the same today, and again tomorrow. It won't ask if they are Catholic. It will only ask if they are hungry.
Prudent people think about this stuff before they have to.

And in books. And on TV and radio. And I’m currently in RCIA. I heartily encourage any and all of you who are interested to look into Catholicism and see for yourself what it actually entails. I would, however, suggest you make a fair effort to consult the Church’s resources and those of folks who are trying to follow its teaching in addition to the resources of folks who are trying to draw you away from it.

First, I’m sorry you feel you weren’t a Christian before. I have not only Lutheran friends but friends from all over the denominational map (including Catholics) whom I consider Christian brothers and sisters, and who in many (most) cases quite candidly have been better at living out the faith than I have.
Second, I did several round trips through the Bible over the last decade, mostly well before I was even thinking of becoming Catholic. And when I did start considering the possibility and doing the research, that helped me to see “Yeah, that’s right, that makes sense. They’re not just making stuff up.”

Unfortunately true. Those things are part of the Church’s history, as they are of all human history. Sometimes done by its people, sometimes done to them. Not that the latter at all excuses the former...it absolutely does not...but the latter is just as much a matter of historical fact as the former. And with all due respect, I think history also indisputably shows one of God’s greatest miracles...that He’s been able to use a divided, persecuted and sinful flock of believers (including Catholics) to be a blessing to the world.
