How many professed Catholics truly believe?

well except that...I think when thoughts and feelings and facts get thrown onto the table and churned around it helps to clarify what we think and feel about various issues, plus when others make really great points it makes me re-examine my stance and perhaps even soften it
Because Catholic schools can receive government funding whereas Jewish and other schools don't. That is why the UN High Commission for Human Rights criticized Canada over it, saying it had to be all or bothing. Either all religious schools were equally funded, or none at all. Right now only Catholic and Protestant schools can get funding in Ontario. Even Orthodox ones cannot.
omg...you are opening a quagmire of crap for our kids, our culture and our country
- I do not want kids going to a school which endorses Sharia law and discriminates against women not only from a faith base but from a life base
- I do not want kids attending a school where the curriculum deviates one iota due to faith such as not teaching evolution
- who is going to build these schools
- who is going to pay for the bussing
- who is going to regulate them...
we have already had such problems and closed down such schools... my god if you want to have to swell government ranks just in the educations sector this would be the way to bankrupt us
you have no idea of how the education system functions and just what is involved...it would be a FUBAR
you can't do that.....you don't get it....the curriculum has to be standardized...it can't happen with every little pocket of faith opening their own schools...
as for the Jews why can't they do it....the Muslims do
they just bought a school from the Catholic Board here in my region
but
they have to follow curriculum... and a million other rules...if they can show that...they can have a school and they will receive the same funding other schools do
but omg...you have no idea about even how complicated money management etc is...you can't just throw some desks into a room and away you go....
they head to the Catholic system...
at least the balanced ones do
By teaching the Provincial curriculum they get funded. Funding follows the student regardless of religion as long as they are taught the Provincial program.

Who cares? If you happen to be one of the Catholics in question in
the thread title, then it's an individual question (& a private one) for
each individual person.

People that hate the Catholic Church.
Of course it's individual but when you hate the Catholic Church......
You have to scale things, I guess. Would I want a Chuch nextdoor with its bells
& such every Sunday morning and its traffic? No really.
Would I rather have that Chuch nextdoor than the Coke Dealer I currently have
with his traffic (& trafficing) at all hours? In a heartbeat!
Uhoh. Does that make me anti-coke-dealer? Anti-coke-dealer-ist?
If the RCC (and others) weren't fighting it in court the cost to the taxpayer would be minimal. That being said the Federal Govt should be coughing up money as it was their program to begin with.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah dude
I love the bells...I miss the bells. In my small city where I was born you could tell the time by the strike of the Anglican church bell thorough out the day. Also our St. Mary' church here play a series of bells at a quarter to eight every morning...when I work at that school nearby I make sure I am there early enough to hear them ring.
