That’s changed recently with the rise of wokism
It’s hard to figure
They are like Jews
So many claim to be catholic from birth but aren’t religious
That describes most of my catholic friends and most of my family who are non practicing Catholics
As a southern Baptist fire and brimstones kind of ingrains a reluctance to wander too far lol
It works criticize it all you like
I went to the front at a guest Jim Robeson revival at Calvary Baptist church in Jackson Mississippi in 1967 at 10 years old Wednesday night service after RAs
My dad watching our students group sitting up front in our 4-500 souls congregation whispered to my mom
“He’s gonna get all down there at this rate” lol
Salvation ..whatever works more or less
For Catholics too
I bought this book when it first came out in the 1980s:
“Roots of Radicalism: Jews, Christians, and the Left”
by Stanley Rothman (Author), S. Robert Lichter (Author)
https://www.amazon.com/Roots-Radicalism-Jews-Christians-Left/dp/156000889X
The authors were liberal Jewish academics who were bold enough to publish research that some people didn’t think ought to be published.
This was primarily a study of 1960s New Left radicals. IIRC the Christian component of the radical movement were primarily Catholics, with a smattering of others like Quakers of the Friends Service Committee.
