Do you have to fight with your wife to teach your kids Catholicsim? It is YOUR duty.

Fight with my wife? I have to fight with my Church. Right now, our parish is broiling over parents angry over a now-exposed homosexual-molestor deacon who was with us for over eight years. Both my sons' Catholic schools have had serious homosexual molestations occur within the past decade. In the middle of bringing up my kids Catholic, I have to find a way to explain this crud within the Church to my kids. Of course, it will strip away some of their faith in the Church. My older son is supposed to take a 'Family Life' course, but the obviously queer priest in charge will not allow me to review the curriculum. I am honestly frightened by what he may be taught there. One of our parish priests the other day told everyone in Church that it was OK not to come to mass. Our parish priest told our Bible study group the other night that the virgin birth of Christ didn't make sense, because it might lead some to question the 'wonder of sexuality.' Etc. Etc. etc. You know, you are right, Catholicguy. It's my wife's and my responsibility to teach our kids Catholicism. But instead of the Church being by our side, it often fighting against us. I'm sick and tired of having to carefully vet everything and everyone from the Church that and who has contact with my children. It's a crying shame that we have sunk so low.
