Now that Amy Coney Barrett stands at the threshold of a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court, a second round of Democrat Senate Judiciary Committee members posing as an inquisition seems inevitable. How dare this woman live as a committed Catholic right in our faces? Is she not aware that religion generally and Christianity in particular are on the wane among Millennials, Gen Z, and costal elites and that restoration of "God" to the Democrat party platform stirred more than a little controversy just four short years ago?
And since it is the Constitution of the United States, not the manifesto of Black Lives Matter, that explicitly prohibits the application of a religious test to court nominees, the Democrats' insistence upon imposing one anyway is also inevitable, because of the dogma that lives loudly inside them.
Why was the dogma Dianne Feinstein found "living loudly inside" Barrett of such concern? Because, insisted Feinstein, unwittingly promulgating a dogma of her own — "the law is completely different" from Catholic dogma. Hmm. Not sure how many credible historians have replicated Feinstein's finding that the Judeo-Christian inheritance at the heart of Western civilization is "completely different" from American jurisprudence, but never mind. Feinstein's linkage between Barrett's Catholic dogma and the Dem committee members' concerns bears pondering — because in fact dogma that "lives loudly inside" the minds and hearts of people inevitably bears fruit in their public lives.

I think Feinstein was looking at the right side of the court and could see nothing but Catholics as far as the eye could see and the left side of the court and Jewish liberals (other than Sotomayer, a racebaiting CINO) and made the calculation Catholics, Bad in her simple enfeebled mind when she attacks Catholic judicial nominees for their religious dogma.
The biggest problem with her Catholicism is the stricture against murder, which, if memory serves, is hardly the exclusive province of Catholicism. In fact, I’d like to see a viable society in which murder is not condemned and punished.
(1) She will not conflate abortion into women's health.
(2) She will pass laws that are both anti-Christian and do not support the National Education Association union in its fight against private religious schools.
(3) She does not believe in “social justice” that is separate laws that are less stringent for people of color and protected classes as for others.
(4) She believes that the Constitution should be followed and that legislation from the bench is wrong.
She fails all four of those Democratic Party litmus tests. Even worse she does not believe in situational ethics dictated by the party elite.
Leftists have their own sets of dogmas, which have overpowered their intellect and their emotions, leading them to become totalitarian fascists.
