Catholics are good and decent people. I have never known one who was not willing to marry beneath themselves by marrying outside of the church and taking a spouse from one of the gutter religions.
The children do have to be raised in the Catholic Church (You know the one. The Chruch founded by Peter as directed by the Lord Jesus Christ). We have enough snake handlers and televangelists in the world.
What? This thread wasn't funky enough?
