Notice the correlation in the statistics, the least Bible minded and liberal area of the country, the Northeast, is heavily Catholic, and always vote Democrat. Whilst the most Bible minded areas of the country, the south and midwest, are heavily Protestant, and vote Republican.

Yet FR, an obviously Catholic site, its Religious section flogging Protestants in one thread after another, is a very conservative site. Go figure.

True, though money also is a large factor.

Which is usually due to the incessant posts about Rome, often advertising her or defending her doctrine, which invites refutations, and sometimes results in overreactions by her defenders when she is impugned in the least, as well as more exposure of problems. But both faiths are in spiritual declension overall, and atheism and witchcraft are on the rise as the US goes into its tailspin.

There's a difference between people who merely call themselves "Catholic" and those who actually believe and practice the faith.

Visit a traditional Latin Mass parish sometime, go to coffee hour afterwards, and ask for a show of hands of the Obama voters. I almost guarantee that people will look at you like you have three heads, then try to pull you aside and explain that Obama is an apostate fiend from hell.
