    Granted, having been raised Catholic may pre-dispose one to being a religious seeker- but what Mike Pence found was pretty conservative, even by Catholic standards...
    Totally! Would be far happier with a Catholic in power than an Americacan Evangelical. And this is from someone whom some might term an evangelical!

    The more interesting thing is that there are seven Catholics and two Jewish Supreme Court justices. Half a protestant (Gorsuch was raised Catholic but seems to practice as Anglican). No evangelicals, no Lutherans, no calvinists. And of course, no representative from the biggest faith group - atheists.

    Sounds like someone doesn't know much about the US. Atheists are a small minority. About 4% are atheists and 5% agnostic. There are about 20% of Catholics...
