Christian or Catholic? Because I think it's pretty clear that MAGA is anti-Catholic and JD is setting up his move to being a non-denom Christian, probably with membership at a evangelical mega church that preaches the whole prosperity thing.

The complicit Catholics left are Marco, RFK Jr, and a few Supreme Court justices?


Catholics ARE Christians, dummy.

Not to the fundies, they're not. That is 100 percent an alliance of convenience.


My fundy friend growing up was always really sad I was gojng to burn in hell as an idolator papist. And my nephew married a fundy who made him cut off ties with his papist parents. They don’t really like us or the Jews.

I'm pretty sure it's not in Bethesda, like the PP states.


Oh I’m the PP and I had heard he went to our lady of Lourdes which would be close to his house in CC and I think where his kids went to primary school. But I don’t go there so I don’t know. I heard that around the time of his nomination hearings, so that’s old news.

I think the hierarchical structure of the Catholic Church appeals to Vance’s authoritarian leanings.

The one thing that gnaws at me is the emphasis on service. I did volunteer work of some kind on a weekly basis from age 10 through college graduation. I have found ways to teach my kids to give their time to others, but it’s not a part of their lives like it was when I was in Catholic school.

I was a high school debate champion and guys like JD Vance were a dime a dozen. “Intellectual” Catholics with little feel for the moral underpinnings of it all, and with unbridled ambition to use their intelligence and smooth talk to get to the top in law and conservative politics. More smart young people are liberal—being a brainy conservative is a savvy way to get ahead.


I went to YLS, which is full of HS debate champions. This is how Vance always strikes me — he likes to argue a point just to score points and thinks he is so clever in doing so. But there’s no there there. I agree that his type is a dime a dozen in certain circles. When you pull off the veneer, what I see underneath is a neglected child who was sort of a loser growing up and who never felt good enough who is searching for fame/power to fill a whole in his heart. I suspect the structure of Catholicism also is an attempt to fill that hole. He has sort of the mindset of an addict but instead of craving alcohol or a drug he is craving power and “winning.”


Succinct analysis. Agree.
