There's no evidence for this. You haveGOP and Dems on the court, and you can praise or blame the Presidents, it's not some kind of religious thing:

Scalia ---Reagan
Kennedy---Reagan

Thomas ---GHW Bush

Ginsberg--Clinton
Breyer----Clinton

Roberts---GW Bush
Alito-----GW Bush

Sotomayor-Obama
Kagan-----Obama

Believe me, if Reagan has appoiointed a Jew, it would have been a morally-socially-politically conservative Jew; if Obama were to appoint an evangelical, it would somebody of the Rev. Wright variety.

It's not religious, it's political philosophy. Nuff said.

So, then, how do you tell when life begins, or how do you define what marriage is? The strongly held personal beliefs of the justices are what they base their decisions on, and are what drives how they interpret the Constitution. Any look at news coverage of SC nominees being picked shows their religion being prominently mentioned and discussed.
