16. Perhaps Republicans oppose her because she's Protestant. Float that one out there.

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


Is Lindsey is 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?
