I don't think anyone should be to surprised about this. The church is just looking for a constituency kinda like the democrats are.

You don't know much about Catholics and the Church, do you? LOL
I don't even think Mahoney is doing it for a constituency. He is doing it to be 'out there,' on the cutting edge of defiant and holier than thou. He doesn't care about Catholicism, nor, I bet, does he practice it. But he does care about FAME and he is prideful and arrogant. Some of the sheeple think he is just wonderful for daring to defy Rome. He turns my stomach.
Most of these immigrants become protestants, Jehovah's Witnesses, or unchurched.
