Quote from: head of school

Affirmation is a fundamental tenet of Christian life and Catholic Faith. Christ taught us that of God's children need to be affirmed for the talents they offer the world. Parents affirm their children. Spouses affirm each other. Employers affirm employees. It feels good to be affirmed. Affirmation says, "You have value; I appreciate you; the community is a better place because you are part of it.

I was thinking of typing up some more from it but maybe it's not worth it.

Anyway, it really is hard for me to believe that they are unashamed to spout this nonsense in their glossy magazine.

Affirmation is not a bad thing, in itself. I agree that affirmation is important. It's very important in relationships.

HOWEVER, it would not shock me if this statement was accompanied by a prevailing, liberal mindset. Their spin on affirmation may not fit into God's good design.

No, the quote is absurd. It's almost blasphemous.

This magazine is known for statements tantamount to apostasy.

Quote from: eulogy for history teacher

The important task in life is perhaps not to aim for heaven, but to aim for honor. We must live our lives so that those who know us will trust us, will know that we will never betray them.

:shocked:

That quote is dripping with cultish lingo.

It was written by my high school English teacher.

Looking back on it I've come to realize that most of the teachers there were modernists or infidels of some kind.

What was so frustrating was to be told to put up with that in a Catholic school by everyone in authority, including parents.

I had a lot of difficulties there after my sophomore year. I was seventeen in 1994, looking back I tend to think I would have been better off if I had dropped out.

Modern education is almost all anti-Catholic.
It should be avoided as much as possible.
