Could this be part of why the young aren't engaged?

From what I understand about Catholic school, many are often ahead of public curriculum. It also seems a bit rigid and strict, but these are views from the outside.

Secular enlightenment and scientific progress needn't be opposed by the religious. One can easily believe in a deity and embrace the premise that said deity initiated the big bang and implemented the process of evolution and so on.

I believe that teaching of various religious traditions is not only permissible, but is a necessity. It helps dissolve tribal jingoism and better places one's own idiosyncratic cultural biases within a more coherent and broader perspective. I take the general position that more education is always the way to go. In my opinion the more one learns about all of religion the more one realizes that they are all simply the products of human imagination and construction.

This is me:

You’re a wanted woman. Guys are dying to find out more about you. That’s what keeps ‘em coming back for more. Your phone’s probably ringing off the hook. You don’t tell people everything in the world about yourself. You know they can’t take it all in at once and so you only give them a little peek at a time. Keep being Dateable!

Damn' right...treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen has been my philosophy since I was about 16. Before then I was too bloody ugly to have to worry.

As for the rest...we're talking about High School kids, yes?

Why on earth would they need their parents's permission for such stuff at their age? Cannot they make up their own minds?

Judging by the heckling this gentleman received from the pupils, they most certainly can.

I reckon Ms Sarah Weir was just pissed off when she discovered she was totally undateable.
