And some, fanatically so. It would be ironic if they ruled against him in important cases because they are so offended by this sort of thing.

And how the F could we have gone from the point where the biggest knock against JFK in 1960 was "Can we take the chance of having a Catholic as President?" to now with 2/3 of the highest court being Catholic?

And let's observe that only 20% of the country call themselves Catholics, meaning that more like 5-10% are actually practicing, yet they control the highest court in the land !?
