Padre, low-end Latinos tend to be Catholic more like the Haitians are than, O say, the Poles or Irish are. In addition, a huge percentage are Main Line Protestant and Evangelical Protestants, thanks to the incredible pace of missionary expansion in Latin America and domestically.

On the demographic front, we are living in what is going to inevitably become the newest Latin American country in this hemisphere. By the end of this century, "Latinos," "Hispanics," will be at least between 35 and 40% of the overall population, making them the dominant ethnic group. Nothing racist about arithmetic. And that holds true if all Latino immigration legal and illegal were to end tonight at midnight.

"White" people, or those who prefer to identify themselves as such, will become a minority on the scale of Brazil, that is not just under 50% as we are now, but more like under 15% percent. Padre, bienvenido al nuevo mundo.
