I feel that I need to respond to the person who posted an annomous
not quite flame about my query about education and religion.  I agree
that this does not seem to be the right newsgroup but I also agree that
net.religion is not the right group either in any case I unsubscribed
to net.religion because I coulden't stand the bigotery but that is another
story.
Re the posting Re my posting I resent being pityed and called narrow for
asking about other peoples opinions.  What I said was that in the sample of
people I have been exposed to the most devout ones were generaly the less
educated.  This is a statement of fact as for as the subset of people I
know is conserned I did not hypothesize that this was true in general I
asked what other people had found.
As far as the success of products of catholic grade schools goes I will state
the further observation that those graduates whom I have met have either broken
from the church or are book learned but conventional thinkers.  Does
anybody have any comments on this?
