OR..
Give me your ideal conservative-voting religious affiliation.
Then give me an accurate demographic breakdown of same.
Europe is dhimmi, exactly because they gave up their nation and religious characters.
It doesn't make much sense to insist that Mexico is a Catholic country. But, anything to fit a predefined narrative.
I don’t even know what you are talking about, that didn’t make any sense, and had nothing to do with anything that I have posted.
That’s funny, I could have sworn you were describing something done by the KKK in the distant past when Mexico was almost 100% Catholic, founded by Catholics, and with at least 70% church attendance, and about as perfectly catholic as a country could be, not today, so this post you just made is a little weird and irrelevant.
Mexico suffered from a Bolshevik revolution.
The Bolshevik government outlawed Catholicism.
A civil war insued.
The KKK took up collections to fund the Bolshevik war on Catholicism.
The war ended with Catholic worship permitted under severe restrictions, some of which remained in place until the 1990s. The government of Mexico remains hostile to many teachings of the Church.
The result of over half a century of government-control over worship is the Mexico you see today. Very few people go to Church, very few people follow Church teachings.
Holy cow, you posted all that nonsense before, and now more nonsense.
You really, really seem to want to talk about something besides this thread.
American Catholics support the left, and immigration.
Nice try. You said Catholics are trying to create a Catholic society by bringing in Mexicans. When confronted with the clear evidence that Mexico is by no means a Catholic society and your pre-defined narrative is based on your own whimsical dreams, you played dumb, and now pretend that the thread is Catholics “supporting the left,” when it is about pluralism.
But apparently you want to continue your previous line about "Catholics supporting the left." In which case, Catholics "support the left" only nominally more than Protestants "support the left."
Another phony narrative out the window. I have no doubt, however, that you'll continue to repeat it. Sometimes the truth matters less than the agenda, it would seem.
Nice try? it is just simple facts, the democrats have always won the Catholic vote, and when JFK took office the number of times the GOP had won the Catholic vote was disputed, with the total either being one, or zero, the democrats adopted JFK’s immigration plan, and today they depend on Catholic immigration from the Catholic nations to the South, such as Mexico.
American Catholics were voting democrat long before they lost their racial purity.
Anything to fit the agenda.
By your own claim, it is white Catholics who support the left only nominally more than white Protestants...
The fact is, there are far more Mexican Catholics than there are Mexican Protestants in the U.S...Most of those Mexican Catholics vote liberal...So your numbers are pretty skewed...
The white membership of the Catholic church is dropping like flies, while the white membership in the Protestant denominations is growing....
And the fact also is, there are a lot more black Protestants than black Catholics in the U.S, and 95% of them vote liberal. And there are millions more black Protestants than Mexican Catholics in the U.S.
Anything to fit your agenda?
Like going on about Mexico? The Catholic country that has been sending millions of Catholics to America since JFK’s immigration law was passed?
The fact is that American Catholics are and were, and always will be, democrat voters, we can hope for the too rare exceptions, but the left knows that they will continue to own the Catholics.
While blacks who mostly attend black Protestant churches of various denominations vote democrat today, we don’t have a breakdown of how they vote depending on which denomination they attend.
The members of the Catholic denomination have always been a predictable democrat vote, and still are, they support the party that the blacks switched to in 1936.
The facts are that the democrat party owned the Catholic voters, long before JFK’s change to the immigration laws, to replace the American Protestants of America.
When JFK was shot in 1963, the Democrat party had only won the Protestant vote twice (1932, 1936), and had only lost the Catholic vote either once, or zero.
See the first sentence in the article? “”With few exceptions, American Catholics have given up on the dream of a Catholic society.””
It relates directly to your discussion and your position.
To make the point again: Would you be ok if the influx of Mexican immigrants were non-Catholic?
I don’t even know what you are talking about, that didn’t make any sense, and had nothing to do with anything that I have posted.
Well then don’t worry yourself any more about it.
Give a try to the other questions and points.
