I am thinking Gorsuch, Coney Barrett, and Kavanaugh are all Catholic, and was for all 3. I thought I heard that Melania his wife is Catholic. There are 3 more that are also Catholic I looked it up 6 justices all together Alito, Thomas, and Roberts.

Another example of poor jurisprudence.

Catholics go to Catholic schools and get a better education than most people. The schools are known for standards amd rigor.

I'm not Catholic and I don't agree with several things they teach. That being said you are correct about the schools. It's not Catholic schools putting out illiterate, social justice warriors that don't know B from a bulls hoof. smh

Catholics are strong on family, strong against abortion and trans/gay if they are true and faithful Catholics. Stronger than Protestants I'd wager and they get out and vote.

This is probably based on the inherent right of elected officials to determine curriculum. If you want a different curriculum, elect different officials. Or, better yet, homeschool. Then you will always agree with the official.

Whelp so much for my theory. I don't see Protestants doing any better. Now we're saying no one will vote for strict abortion laws and thats why Republicans aren't winning. Who knows?

I would say because God Ordained it, and allowed it, as it says in Romans 13. Frankly, we should be happy with even what we have and thank God, given the God-less nature of our nation as a whole. And I am not a Catholic by the way.

That should be a states issue, not federal. Creating the Fed Dept. of Education was a huge mistake.

What kind of country will America become when the Constitution is no longer the law of the “Republic”?

Religious makeup of the current court:
John Roberts (Chief Justice) - Catholic,
Clarence Thomas - Catholic,
Samuel Alito - Anglicanism/Catholic,
Brett Kavanaugh - Catholic,
Sonia Sotomayer -Catholic
Amy Coney Barrett - Catholic
Neil Gorsuch - Catholic
Ketamine Brown Jackson - Protestant
Elena Kagan - Judaism
The Lord tells us through Paul,

"1Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? 2Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? 4If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church. 5I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren? 6But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers. "

The least esteemed, wise man in the carnal church of Corinth should be better qualified to judge than the big shot lawyers that get appointed to the supreme court. Reasons that seem obvious are the following.

1. God's laws are perfect.
2. The Holy Spirit provided wisdom that is refused by the world's egotists.

This says a LOT considering that this city church is the biggest example of a carnal messed up congregation in the N.T. They were corrected and started getting things right by letter 2. Think about this.....the RC priests don't do much correction or rebuking from God's Word to the Catholic lawyers from what I have heard. The Jewish rabbis fruit can be seen in the crooked lawyers.
Exhibit A...Steptoe and Johnson. Shalom my butt you crooked liers/ lawyers.

I digress......Not all lawyers are like them.
It's just the 99% that give the 1% a bad name. 😄
That goes out to all my lawyer family and friends I grew up with.

I could name a few more that should go, but I'd probably forget them later like Rick Perry.
The federal government has very few responsibilities in the Constitution...regulate interstate commerce, coin and print money, field a military, and taxing. All the rest is in the purview of the states.

Also, make laws.

1. America isn't "Protestant."
2. Why do you think Catholic Supremes would eliminate the Constitution as the "law of the Republic?"
do you think we could call her Ketanji Brown Jackson? you know, since that's her name and all?

i'm sure this was unintentional, but ketamine is an anesthetic.
Sorry about that, my iPad constantly corrects my spelting.
