If Alito is confirmed to SCOTUS, the court will be made up of 5 Roman Catholics, one Episcopalian, one Protestant, and two Jewish persons. Clarence Thomas, one of the five Romans, spent much of his adult life in the Episcopal Church, although he crossed the Tiber when it was politically and professionally expedient. I don't know what the Roman domination of the court will mean to American jurisprudence, but things are looking good for Rosaries in the public square.

To write about cars and other things I like. To pontificate on the greatness of Anglicanism in its American context. To explore Texas music and its implications for the Global economy. To wax eloquently on things I know very little about.
