re: #26 Backwoods_Sleuth

I do have to say that my years in Catholic grade school were not wasted. I learned two very important things:
1: The Catholic Church is full of crap.
2: Whoever this Jesus person may or may not have been, he was a really nice guy for the most part and I like to think that, even though I am now an atheist, if he really did/does exist, he would approve of how I live and treat my fellow beings on this earth.

Slueth,

You know I’ve posted about my Catholic background and the fact I went to all 12 years of Grade, Junior and High School. I always will admit I had one hell of an education of the classic liberal arts/college prep variety. I think part of it was I attended when the Catholic church was going through its Pope Paul Vatican 2 modernization and we had a lot of “new” almost hippie priests and lay teachers.

Were you schooled Catholic too?
