Also, as a former Catholic I have the same concerns about the sub group to which she belongs as others on here have stated.

I'm Catholic as well, albeit not a very observant one. I had some concerns as well about this community of faith, that upon further review seems to be a Christian group comprised of more than just Catholics. They sound very evangelistic or fundamentalist, which is not really your "average" Catholic who in my world doesn't identify that way at all.
As I said in my first post in this thread my first choice was Justice Lagoa, and it was for that very reason. I understand why ACB was chosen,though- expediency and a fairly recent vetting resulting in a somewhat bipartisan confirmation. Time is of the essence here, because of the election.
Given the increased likelihood that some issues regarding this election may well end up in the SCOTUS, it is very important that the risk of a 4-4 deadlock be avoided.
