Roberts dismissed any suggestion that his Catholic faith would influence his decisions if he was confirmed to be the nation's 17th chief justice. The Roman Catholic Church strongly opposes abortion.

True. He will be influenced by his own conscience (formed with the help of the Catholic Church, of course).

I'd rather he rely on the Constitution. If he relies on his personal conscience to formulate judicial decisions, he's no different than a liberal judicial activist.
