Today’s highly interesting read (06/23/2024): Catholics and Politics in 2024


On this Sunday today’s read is from Laura Hollis. Her career as an attorney has spanned 28 years, the past 23 of which have been in higher education. Hollis has been a freelance political writer since 1993, writing for The Detroit News, HOUR Detroit magazine, Townhall.com and the Christian Post, on matters of politics and culture. Here’s an excerpt from her latest column:

Catholics are getting a lot of attention among political writers these days. And as with other demographics that once consistently voted Democrat (Blacks, Hispanics, young people), candidates from all parties are actively vying for Catholics’ attention — meaning their votes — this year, while analysts and pundits express bafflement that the conventional political alignments seem no longer to apply.

As amusing as this phenomenon is to observe, it’s inscrutable that so many Catholic writers display such complete lack of understanding — not to mention outright dismay — at some Catholics’ support for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
