But the educational establishment would die raher than allow this. By Jove, I think you've found the solution! :)

If a place where religious education is mandatory, where faith schools are paid for out of taxation, where Bishops sit in the legislature &c.&c. is "commie one-state secularized", I hate to think what the U.S. is. I'm sorry that you so completely missed the point.

It would take another Henry VIII to reform this “national church.” Factoring in things like the sports industry, which depends heavily on sports programs, pu;ishing and entertainment, the educational system amounts to a tenth of our national economy, about the proportion owned by the Catholic Church in England in 1530.

Oliver Cromwell was a great general and a bible-believing Christian who hated the sloth and corruption of some of the Anglican/Catholic hierarchy. Nevertheless, he would make a great Hezbollah leader had he lived today.

Religion aside, we forget just how great Cromwell was as a military leader. Not only was he a great general but he established the royal navy, ended the Dutch commercial supremacy, and frightened all the crowned heads of Europe. His Roundheads were as formidible as the Spanish Infantry had been. Now he had the means to project power whereever he chose. Then, all of a sudden he was gone and France especially breathed a sign of relief.

I’m somewhat familiar with GCC. How did you find the school with regard to it’s treatment of Catholicism?

All in all, the school's treatment of Catholicism is good. Most of the professors are fair in their treatment of Catholicism in discussions in and out of class. There is a healthy Newman Club that has very good rapport with both the parish in town and the administration. Campus ministry has also been consistently supportive. On occasion, there are non-Catholic students who will approach Catholicism negatively, but even they dwindled in number between when I started and when I graduated this past spring.
Individual Catholic students get out what they put into the situation. There are opportunities to live and grow in faith; some students use them and thrive, and others don't.
