The SCOTUS is inching closer to becoming an offshoot of Italy's Corte Suprema di Cassazione.

Nothing will piss off Evangelical & non-Evangelical Protestants more than them being excluded from SCOTUS.


Are Republicans practicing the Republican Party's version of REPLACEMENT THEORY.

While GOPers suck up to Protestants, they want to maintain their purge from SCOTUS.

There are six Catholics, two Jewish and one Angelican/Catholic Justice. No full Protestants.

While the Angelican Church is considered a 'Protestant' religion, it is the closest to the Roman Catholic Church, with several sub-sects. Justice Gorsuch is Anglo-Catholic and his faith almost aligns with the Catholic Church, so he really isn't Protestant.

With Protestants comprising 42% of the United State's demographics, it's surprising that the last Protestant was purged out around 2005 and there hasn't been another one on the SCOTUS court since. Why is that?

Did Protestants acquiesce to the Catholic Church?


============


Wasn't this one of the concerns with JFK, that he's be controlled by the church, like SCOTUS now?

That was one of the major concerns about placing Roman Catholics in high office positions.

Their beliefs or undue influence by the church would be used to manipulate them.


It seems that this is coming to fruition.

1. I remembered how people were concerned about Kennedy

being a Catholic after I read the first paragraph. 60 years later and the pendulum has swung.

2. This is a Catholic Church Court.

The Supreme Court is The Vatican Court. These Justices are extremists who have banded together to enforce their religious will on a nation of 350,000 people.

The lack of all accountability, the lack of an ethics code, the lack of term limits are all part of a great flaw.

3. 13 court of appeals there should be 13 SC Justices

4. This has been pointed out here at DU before

and those pointing it out were called prejudiced against Catholics.
