That is hardly the case, and you should know it. The reality is that while the vast majority of western RCs are liberal, and become conservative if they join evangelical churches.

Meanwhile, the fastest growing faith in America is actually Islam (39% by immigration), and Mormonism, and “Nones.”

-—know it. The reality is that while the vast majority of western RCs are liberal, and become conservative if they join evangelical churches.——

Regular mass attendance is the divider between conservative and liberal Catholics.

I’ve observed that many good Catholics switch to Evangelical churches for good reasons. They don’t know why they’re in church. They’re looking for an active community. But this is a function of poor catechesis. Ministries like EWTN and Catholic Answers appear to be filling the gap.
