J. Grant Swank, Jr. (ArriveNet Editorials - Oct 05, 2005) -- J. Grant Swank, Jr. Harriet E. Miers was born Roman Catholic. As an adult, she attended Episcopal and Presbyterian worships, seeking a deeper, more personal faith.The relevance, for those who assert here is no relevance, is to the CREDIBILITY of the character witnesses.http://editorials.arrivenet.com/government/article.php/6200.html
Hecht says Miers never got married because she "probably worked too hard. She's close to her family, has a sister and three brothers, goes to her nephews' high school football games, bought a car for one of them." She "had a Catholic upbringing, had not been close to the church, it was off again, on again, then she came to a point in her life when she wanted to change that. She made an abrupt change in 79 or 80. She was very hard-working and successful, she wanted new meaning, substance in her life.http://www.worldmagblog.com/blog/archives/018818.html
Miers was born a Roman Catholic but became an evangelical Protestant in 1979. She was guided in that voyage by a good friend and then-colleague at their law firm, Nathan L. Hecht. "One evening she called me to her office and said she was ready to make a commitment," Hecht has said. He took her to his own church, the Valley View Christian Church in Dallas, where she was baptized -- born again. Since then, she has been an active and important member of the church.Miers: Faithful to Whom? - Richard Cohen - 10/18/05

There is no issue at all if she is/was Catholic, Episocpalian, or God forbid, a Lutheran. The inquiry is her judicial acumen and legal philosophy vis-a-vis Con Law.
