I also go to a catholic university.

Our teacher once told a story about a guy who broke up with a girl because she was an atheist. He wanted to be with someone whom he can go to church with.

Poor guy.

I got stuck going to a catholic university in my youth when I was already an atheist. I also had to take the theology classes. I was regularly booted from the class for asking questions. Now don't think I suffered with this... I rather enjoyed myself. In one class the priest was attempting to describe the difference between venial sin (a lessor offence) and mortal sin (the biggie offence) by using theft as a model. He claimed that stealing under $200 was a venial sin and of course over $200 a mortal sin. My hand quickly shot up "if I steal $199 from 5 people have I committed 5 venial sins or does it roll over to a mortal sin on the second theft." "Get out of this class" the priest said. "Well if you don't want to answer the question I certainly understand." I said. "Get out, get out!" he screamed and I just laughed on the way out. I flunked his class for some reason. I also switched over to a non religious university the second year when I could afford to pay my own tuition.

Now you know how I grew up. It's just sad. The waste of time when I could have been out having fun.
