    This is only because evangelical protestants seem incapable of getting into top law schools in sufficient numbers.https://twitter.com/KBAndersen/status/1521890098572410884 …

    It really is kind of remarkable that only one in five Americans call themselves Catholic, but of the Supreme Court majority apparently about to permit abortion to be outlawed, all but one are Catholic and that one was raised Catholic.

        ambitious "ethnics" see state bureaucratic law as path of upward mobility. Catholics, I was raised one, have a hierarchal orientation which they transfer to politics

        In part because the more informal, less visible hierarchies of other areas of life will be shut off to them and they won’t be able to navigate them as well

        Catholics have an innate affinity for the pageantry and arcane institutions that make them better suited for the Court.

        I mean, why join the Roman Curia when you can wield real power in the heart of Empire?

        It’s funny when you think about the OG Protestant pro-lifers, the Schaefer family, living in a cottage full of books in Switzerland. How far they’ve fallen.

        This is because they were all chosen by Leonard Leo's theocratic Federalist Society.
