they are
but in all honesty
american catholics simply do not care what their bishops, cardinals, and popes say IF THEY DISAGREE WITH IT
we have all met plenty of this stripe, we have them in our families, as relatives
we know they are going to do what they are going to do
and we know this by their continued support of these things
most noticeably homosexual perversion
they either have ‘friends’ or sons or daughters doing this and can’t and won’t reject it, and in fact some champion it
and so itmgoes with abortion as well
Demographic Reality:
65% Christians (in general)
20% Catholics (in particular)
14.5% Hispanic
13% Black
4.5% Hispanic
It would be catastrophic if the bottom three shifted against the Democrats. How about the top two? We don't need 100%. If 10% of Catholics listen to their bishops lay out the overarching issues and comply, it's over.

Disclaimer: I was raised Catholic. Baptist, now.
I can recall in the mid sixties the younger priests already telling the congregations they could in good conscience not follow dictates of the law and civil society if they thought they were not correct.
And guess what? The congregants took them at their word! And those that stayed in the Catholic church then raised their own children under very relaxed norms.
Poop, it seems, actually does roll downhill.
The Catholics are not the only party guilty of this: They are simply the largest denomination and the most vocal.
Though shameful, it’s an accurate assessment. :(
