What do you think about Catholic schools, or just religious schools in general?
They are fine. I went to a catholic school for one year.
Are they as strict and judgmental as the media makes them seem?
Like all schools, Catholic schools vary by region or specific school. Mine was not the most strict school I've ever been to
Oh okay. I don't really understand the purpose behind having religious schools as general education.
Me too. Making a Catholic education system was a reaction to the Anti-Catholicism of the 17th century.
I didn't realize that there was an anti-Catholicism movement. They're one of the most prominent religious so that's really incredible!
The Irish (Catholic) immigration into England (protestant) led to bloody conflicts in the western world at that time
Oh okay. That makes more sense. I was thinking it was here in the United States! lol
Well the Irish were very persecuted in America when they first came also.
