BTW, another couple of interesting pieces of trivia:

Clarence Thomas was born a Catholic. He went to seminary as a young man but left it and left the Church because of rampant racism on the part of other seminarians — he then became an Episcopalian. He only returned to the Church in 1995, 3 years after he’d been named to the Court.

Robert Bork, who, had he been confirmed, would have been Jewish Justice #3, was received into the Catholic Church in 2003.

These pieces of deflective trivia may be interesting to you but have nothing to do with anything I've posted today or with this week's Supreme Court ruling which passed with the votes of TWO CURRENTLY PRACTICING ROMAN CATHOLIC JUSTICES.

Care to address this point and only this point?
