Illegal immigrants? Legal immigrants? Relocated Yankees?
Unless these are conversions to Catholicism, why is this significant?
“Illegal immigrants? Legal immigrants? Relocated Yankees? Unless these are conversions to Catholicism, why is this significant?”
It’s significant because it ties directly to the title of the article. It explains WHY Catholicism is growing in the south. We have more immigrants coming into the south than before, and they are primarily Mexicans, and Mexicans are primarily Catholics. Relocated Yankees, many of whom are Polish, Irish, and Italian, also are primarily Catholic. It’s not a difficulet concept. (The only Catholics I know here in my area of TN are from Michigan, and are of Polish descent.)

I don’t know, but perhaps people wanna live in Kentucky or the Carolinas, I might wish to move there someday.
But hey, we all have our rants at one time or another, right?
