My son has similar sentiments about his Jesuit education.

sounds like your son is very smart and maybe even better looking than his dad

...kinda

but honestly I often say that what I appreciated the most about my Jesuit education is that they gave me the tools to argue against what they taught me - as it should be

i went to mostly all catholic schools and my biggest takeaway is that masturbation is evil.

He is smarter and better looking than me. The smarter part - well that’s not hard to pull off; I am a rather dull blade; however, I still find the better looking part humanly impossible. Yet, here we are.

Why did this response remind me of this?

Ditto my catholic schooling

Ditto my catholic schooling

Me too.
Also made me appreciate the strength of nuns who appeared elderly and fragile. They were surgical at pulling ears and giving death stares.

And could wing a blackboard eraser with deadly precision at a student whose attention was wavering.

Actually my Catholic education (4 years) was non-traumatic. Our school was about 50/50 nuns/lay teachers. I got a couple whuppins but none I didn't deserve. Also, don't laugh at your buddy when he's gettin' a whuppin' lest one be visited upon you for laughing

Yeah, about the same here. I was actually a teacher’s pet for all the lay teachers and some of the nuns, except for two or three who I’m convinced were actually Bond villains dressed as nuns.

Some of the funniest memories I have are from after-lunch recess. The Sisters would be out there playing kick-ball with us, running around in their habits and breaking ankles.
