LOL, the denomination is not a race, and Hispanics are new to influencing the numbers, and the Catholic vote is not changing from what it has always been.

As whites flee Catholicism, some of the remaining ones are starting to vote like moderate Protestants, big deal.

You don’t think that this new white superiority thing by some Catholics as they try to defend the pro-gay/pro-abortion vote of their fellow Catholics, is creepy, and that it makes no sense, since we are talking about a denomination, and Catholics who came from almost pure Catholic countries?

TRY to READ the column you seem to take delight within.

That’s because “Catholics” includes not just worshipers who attend Mass weekly and perhaps tilt in a more conservative direction but those who go less frequently and those for whom Catholicism is as much an ethnic as a religious identity.

I can tell you this much:

There IS a difference between how practicing Catholics vote and how non practicing or secular Catholics vote.

There IS a difference between how white Catholics vote and non white Catholics vote.

I would argue that white religious Catholics vote along pretty much the same lines as white religious Protestants.

Race is the biggest factor in determining voter preference these days in the US. Regular church attendance-—does not matter if Catholic or Protestant-—is another big factor.

Those would be the ones who actually believe in Catholicism, BTW.

Or in many cases, more conservatively than a lot of conservative Protestants.
