Q: I answered the one question about the christians trying to convert everyone and read "I'm Catholic, but there's a lot about my faith I disagree with..." and i agree with you. but anyway, I have to write this paper for my religion class (all girls catholic high school. can you say kill me now?) about my beliefs and such. my teacher isn't open minded and she keeps pushing all this on me. what would you do: make up a bunch of stuff that you are taught to believe and get an A or give 'em a little boot in the butt?? (not a lot, i'd get kicked out.) thanks!

Notice the paper is about what YOUR beliefs are, not necessarily CATHOLIC beliefs. So if they say anything you can say "Well, you did ask me for MY beliefs"
Catholic schools need to be more accepting and tolerant of different beliefs. I think that you should definitley say what YOU feel and give reasons as to why. You don't have to attack Catholic point of view, just state yours and why. Why should you lie about your beliefs to them?! I doubt you'll get into trouble and if you do just explain that there's a lot you don't understand and that you want things clarified. It's not illegal to question things. Trust me, you won't get kicked out. They can't kick you out for giving your opinion.
I went to a Catholic school as well. I was brainwashed for a while since I was so young, and didn't know any differently. The older I got though the more I started to question my faith. There's a lot that didn't make sense, and a lot that seed to contradict a lot of what the Bible said. Right now I guess I consider myself just a Christian without a religion. ;)
Anyway, good luck with it.
