Actually knowing quite a few parents who send their kids to Catholic school, Id suggest that at least 50% or more do so, due to convenience. Parents were baptised that way MANY years ago allowing them to have that choice and perhaps send the kids to a school thats 1 block away vs 10 blocks.
There are still some who advocate Catholicism...but Id think the % is minimal. How many of you who went to Catholic school live the Catholic way and go to church Sunday mornings? 5%? less? My bet is on the less. So what is the purpose?
Noone answered my question...in todays Canada why is it that a Catholic system is still a part of the choice? Why isnt it a multi-denominational choice? Could they all get along? Would it be harmonious having Catholic kids being taught to kneel down 5 times a day for prayer the Islamic way vs prayer to God every morning? Isnt it Canada's way to be fair to all denominations?
