I was expelled from Sunday School for asking awkward questions. "Where did Noah's sons find wives?"
I endured Catechism classes in early elementary then in 6th grade was thrown kicking and screaming into the Catholic school system. I begged to be allowed to go to the public school...before dad died he admitted making me go to the Catholic school was probably not the best idea and I would have done better all around had I not been forced into it. Of course, by then he was atheist and that public school ship had sailed for me.
As long as dad paid the tuition they pretty much had to keep me.
