Catholic schools at every level educating children from every religion under the sun--but not in religion

Reason #47 why we give our children a Catholic education at home!

True story - my cousin's husband, a former U.S. Marine now on his 2nd civilian career (he was too soft-hearted for security work) is the Principal of a Catholic school in the Philadelphia area. He's not Catholic; in fact, they don't attend any church at all!

I'm convinced that if religion isn't taught and practiced in the home that it's virtually unteachable. Oddly, I don't mind nonCatholics as administrators in Catholic schools--I have more problems with '60s Catholics teaching religion.

Oh, Lord. Which one? We're in the Philly archdiocese!

I do think things are improving. I'm surprised that's happening in Philly. When the St. Joe nun who'd been running our parish school finally left, lots of other St. Joe nuns applied for the position, but the pastor and parish council unanimously decided to give the job to a Catholic. (A laywoman).
