Well, I recall a news item from a few years ago.  Someone in NYC was trying to
see if there was a legal way to make the private (ie parochial) schools in
that town conform to the same forced bussing for integration rules as
the public school system.

They found out, to the chagrin of all concerned, that the church-run
schools in general had more minority students and a better ``mix''
than almost any of the forcibly integrated public schools.  Further,
in some church-run schools, the ``native'' denomination is in the
minority!  I don't know whether or not this includes any of the
Catholic schools; I am thinking of Grace Church School in particular.

The Law of Christ is LOVE.  Love that says that the other fellow
is more important than I am.  I hope that we learn this -- all of
us -- and soon.  Our disturbed society is reeling in a deranged world.
The last thing we need is more hatred in Jesus name.
