I’m not catholic, but chose a catholic college because many of my friends went there and our small town Catholic Church seemed fairly conservative: very pro life, the priest was so kind-he knew everyone in town and would chat with us while out and about. I at times wished I was Catholic just to be a part of that.
I was quite naive about that college in particular and much of Catholicism in general. I fully expected to escape the godlessness of public school by attending a religious college. Boy was I in for a surprise. I was shocked and saddened by the promotion of abortion, homosexuality, sex outside of marriage, etc. both in and out of the classroom. Even priest were explaining why God forbid homosexuality then, but that it no longer applied to our era.
I lasted one semester then transferred to a Baptist college. It was a much better fit.
I’m catholic and I was shocked when I read the report..Almost all “so-called Catholic colleges” are as secular if not more secular than the regular ones....They want to be hip and not thought of as stodgy and old fashioned....
