Too many Catholics on the court already (5) and Gorsuch is a virtual Catholic by background. We need an Evangelical Christian MAN on the court. Cruz would fit this bill. So would many others.
Why do we have to capitulate to the leftist “woman” movement all the time? It is killing us!!!
“She’s also Catholic”
ARRRRGH!!!
To a huge number of FReepers, this is NOT a good or fair thing. One more Catholic still leaves SCOTUS entirely comprised of Jews and Catholics.
How about an evangelical Christian? You know ... one of those people who actually PUT TRUMP IN THE WHITE HOUSE!
Sometimes it seems FR is a parallel universe with the USA. The protestants and evangelicals are equal to the GOP and conservatives. The Catholics are equal to the minorities and BLM. Evangelicals fought for, and established, the country so EVERYONE would have a better life, and then are pushed to the side as if we don’t matter. Not even a “Thanks, guys!”
America came close to having Baptist the state religion. James Madison offered that up as a “bribe” to John Leland, the influential leader of the “Virginia Baptists”, in exchange for Leland’s support while the Constitution was being written. Madison absolutely needed the Virginia Baptist group.
Leland ended up supporting Madison, but refused his bribe. He supported Madison ONLY if there would be total and complete religious freedom for ALL faiths.
(You’re welcome.)
So, Baptists (”evangelicals”) supported freedom for ALL faiths, as GOP supported freedom for ALL races. Now, minorities are bullying the GOP who gave them their freedom, and Catholics are bullying the evangelicals who basically gave them their freedom in the USA.
Have a little respect, for Pete’s sake!!
I agree.
