Line 99:
Line 99: − + − − Also, Protestantism is less top down than Roman Catholicism in terms of its authority structure. If the culture shifts more and more away from the cultural heritage of the signers of the constitution, the last 60 years demonstrates that the US Supreme Court Justices will ignore the US Constitution.
→Hannity and Michael Savage are helping conservatives. I am boycotting Megyn Kelly. Savage says conservatives are not going to be entirely happy with any of the current Republican candidates who are running. Savage is right about this
I disagree. Given the volume of current immigration and the socioeconomic and cultural makeup of the current immigrants, American immigration policy will have a greater effect on politics shifting to the left. During times of high immigration, there is less incentive for immigrants to assimilate. If they don't assimilate, they will probably vote for the same failed policies that caused their home countries to be less successful.

Also, the American Constitution was signed largely by Protestants who were far more conservative on social issues and as far as economics.

Am I saying that all Roman Catholics are authoritarians? Absolutely not. Scalia was a Roman Catholic that took the US Constitution seriously. He was excellent. Phyllis Schlafly and Andy are both against an imperial judiciary.

At the same time, Roman Catholic countries are often more authoritarian. So are Easter Orthodox Churches which I think has caused Russia/Putin to be more authoritarian. I think a religion's degree of authoritarianism in its church structure has an effect on its political culture.
