Pretty good points. I guess you could say the supposed conservative woman was the problem and the other women performed liberally as advertised, though. Like maybe it only goes one way with women. The sample size is pretty small, but women do vote more liberally than men. But it is also true that no actual vehement known conservative woman has served.

The sample size of the SC is kind of limiting also when you think about it as far as trends. I wish Trump would blow everything up and appoint a non-lawyer regular person, non-elite type. Joe the plumber or something. My God, a non-lawyer on SC—all the scum clutches their pearls.

I posted this quite awhile ago, but I again quote Hillaire Beloc in his campaign for Parliament

Gentlemen, I am a Catholic. As far as possible, I go to Mass every day. This [taking a rosary from his pocket] is a rosary. As far as possible, I kneel down and tell these beads every day. If you reject me on account of my religion, I shall thank God that He has spared me the indignity of being your representative

My familyy, the Bradfords, came to this country because the king of England had decreed that there would be one church in England and he would be the head of it. By the way we didn’t kick any Indians off their land when we got here. We found some vacant land and settled on it just like the Indians did when they came here.

“Do you consider yourself an ‘orthodox Catholic’?”

Imagine this being a question on a job interview. It would actually be illegal.

And these are not journalists questioning a political candidate in a voluntary interview.

Further, what happened to “no religious test” in Article VI?

This is an ethics violations and deserves a severe reprimand.

The justice should be appointed on the basis of his or her fidelity to the Constitution alone. The Constitution is too important to be given second place to anything else.

Not to mention the fact that if you want a justice because of one particular issue, you may well end up getting another present that you weren’t expecting.

Need Protestants!

Several of them are protesting against the US Constitution. Does that count?

My, my. Quite a collection of religious bigots on the forum today.

Aren’t we supposed to be above litmus tests here? I want an intelligent judge who will thoughtfully apply the constitution.

That’s it.

And I’m an ex Catholic.

Not a bigot, just very concerned with the sway a Pope or Bishop could have. Think of Boenher.

How about a protestant...

No more Catholics on the court.

No more Protestants in the White House.

So the electronic lynching of Amy Coney Barrett has begun.

And supposed "conservatives" on a supposedly "conservative" forum are happy to join the festivities.

As is my daughter and 3 grandchildren.........

As I mentioned, my concern is the pressure the Pope puts on conservatives in office.

Look at Boenher and others, it’s sickening.

Who said people holding public office are real Catholics?

You should read history to see the power the Pope’s have used in the course of history.

“ROMAN CATHOLIC!!!! Daily Mass Attendee!”

Don’t worry, God will forgive you!

Next you’ll say they started the church and are the one true church. Oh, and Peter was the first Pope.
