d attended Coeur d'Alene Charter Academy which was a public school "with privileges." They could teach the world religions class and not really underline any given religion but treated them all the same. So I went through that class as an eighth grader and it broadened my vision to many other religions that ended up being more interesting to me than the Catholic religion. For two years I was away from the Jesuit education style and then I came back into it last year as a freshman. Throughout my freshman year I began to notice the kids that were "brought up Catholic". Meaning in my words from first grade on they were involved in church groups and going to mass at least once a week and were told to read the Bible before they went to bed. And then I compared myself to them wondering if I would be who I am today if my parents made me go to church every Sunday
