    Like two or three generations ago, they fired female teachers who had kids. Also, he’s Catholic. I know he’s an adult convert and so mega weird — adult converts are usually just attracted to the hierarchy and lore instead of the charity and service parts — but he should at least know about nuns teaching school.

      My experience is that adult converts to Catholicism mostly do so because you can’t be married in a Catholic church if you’re not Catholic and their spouse is Catholic. Which is to say, it’s disingenuous.
