Foxman does not explain why he thinks it acceptable that secular Jews—less than 2 percent of the population—should hold a third of the Court seats. Secular American Jews generally hold cultural values quite different from those of mainstream America. They also have an unfortunate tendency to side reflexively with America's enemies. They have made Hollywood and the TV industry moral sewers and vehicles for mindless anti_Americanism.
By the way, Justice Thomas is Anglican and press reports that describe him as Catholic are wrong. He went to Catholic schools as a kid.

Actually, while Justice Thomas was a confessing Episcopalian at the time of his appointment to the Supreme Court, it is my understanding that he has since returned to Catholicism. He was a practicing Episcopalian for 28 years, however; so while Catholic now, he’s certainly not entirely foreign to Protestantism.

Did he recently leave Catholicism? In 2007,
Justice Thomas told Business Week:
I was not a practicing Catholic when I went there (Holy Cross). I had left the church. But I just feel strongly that it's a Catholic school. I'm a practicing Catholic now, in part because I went to Holy Cross.
