After watching the DVD of the documentary that began this thread, I don’t understand how any parent could entrust their children to a parochial school where children are taught that priests are very nearly God themselves who can do whatever they please to whomever they please whenever they please.

What is funny, is that I know of RCC schools that are the opposite. The parents (and the donors) run the show and run over any priest that gets in the way.

My wife interviewed at one, till she was told by a former teacher that it wasn’t the best place. Seems a big donor dictates what goes on. And that happens in MANY private religious schools, no matter what the confession.

A school which teaches that is teaching clericalism, not Catholicism.
