425 Words2 Pages

I have been in a goddamn all girls’ Catholic School for eight years. I don’t like how my school is forcing us, the students, to act as a catholic, to become a catholic, and to follow the the teachings in bible.

    The way in which Australian comedy is regarded, understood, or interpreted can dramatically affect the overall consensus of what it may imply. Australian comedy walks the line of this, you either love it, or you hate it. This is evident in the public’s overall positive responses to Chris Lilley’s mini mockumentary series, “Summer Heights High” & “Jonah from Tonga” which portrays Australian comedy as to have the ability to find humour in each other’s flaws, often more shocking and confronting than initially expected.

Why did Irish Catholic immigrants send their children to private, separate, parochial schools rather than sending them to free public schools? The major reason for such a tendency was that Evangelical Protestants dominated the public school boards.

  • Jesuits Role In The Counter-Reformation

    312 Words  | 2 Pages

    Since Jesuit men took on the vow of chastity they had no obligations to take care of a family therefore, they were able to spread Catholicism effectively and rapidly across the world. Another example of the Jesuits’ part in the Counter-Reformation, was that schools were built in order to help Jesuits teach the word of the Lord. According to Classical tradition, the first Jesuits college was founded in 1547 called Messina. There were also 800 secondary schools for students who desired to learn about the service life. Since most of the Catholic church lost many of their followers in the north of Europe, converting Protestants back to Catholicism proved to be a much harder task than gaining new followers from across the world.
