Saving marrige - the Catholic way

Roman Catholics in the United States are set to launch a campaign to ensure that marriage remains a preserve that can only be occupied by one Roman Catholic woman and one Roman Catholic man who promise to raise all of their innumerable children as Roman Catholics and send them to Roman Catholic parochial* schools. They also need to spend their weekends playing bingo.

*Am I the only one who has never been able to figure out why the Catholic (meaning "general" or "universal") Church runs parochial (meaning "narrowly restricted in outlook or scope") schools?
