Today is part 1 of a much needed but quite dire deep-dive. The case is Griswold v. Connecticut, which may be familiar even to the layperson. It's what gives us the right to buy contraceptives and not have shopkeepers ask us if we're married. How could that possibly be overturned, you might ask? Well, legally speaking, it is justified in the exact same way as Roe. Listen to learn more.

I disagree with one point Andrew made. The Court’s shift is DIRECTLY correlated to Antonin Scalia’s movement toward radical traditionalist Catholicism. Scalia’s son is a Latin mass catholic priest. Scalia was trumpeted as a champion of traditionalist Catholicism. When Scalia’s funeral mass was in English and not Latin, the traditionalist Catholics were pretty much in open revolt against the USCCB. Scalia brought Thomas back into the fold of traditionalist Catholicism, after Thomas left seminary for law school due to the then-rampant racism within the priesthood. Scalia also brought Alito further into the fold of traditionalist Catholicism. Scalia actively recruited Roberts into traditionalist Catholicism. Scalia encouraged his law clerk Amy Coney Barrett to go deeper into radically traditionalist Catholicism. Thomas and Alito are actively recruiting Gorsuch back into the fold of Catholicism (Gorsuch grew up Catholic but has attended an Episcopal church since marriage but since joining the Court regularly attends daily mass with Thomas and Alito). The Catholics on the Court are generally not representative of Catholicism but reflect only radical traditionalist Catholicism as was deliberately cultivated by Antonin Scalia with the sole purpose of shaping the law to reflect traditionalist Catholic policy.

The best way to reduce the number of abortions is to provide cheap, readily available contraception. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/09/france-free-contraception-women The government announced last year that almost 1,000 girls aged between 12 and 14 become pregnant in France and 770 of those pregnancies result in an abortion. Since free contraception was offered to 15- to 18-year-olds, the number of abortions had dropped from 9.5 per 1,000 pregnancies in 2012 to six in 2018, according to official figures.

I read Craig Unger's and Elie Honig's books recently. There seems to be something to the theory about an entrenchment of Opus Dei followers in high levels of U.S. institutions. I'm not a tin-foil hat person, but there seem to be clear examples (Robert Hanssen infiltrating the FBI, Bill Barr speeches, Cipillone, hell all the Federalist Society stuff covered on this podcast over and over again). Truly scary shit.

When I say radical traditionalist Catholicism, I am referring to persons who are within the ambit of mainstream US Catholicism, not your Opus Dei, Society of St Pius X, or sedevacantist types. Radical traditionalist Catholicism is a flavor of traditionalist Catholicism that generally stands for (1) preferring the Latin mass to Vernacular masses, (2) exposing a disdain for the Vatican II council of the 1960s, (3) upholding “traditional” social mores, and (4) generally disliking contemporary social or theological thought. They flirt with fringe groups within the Catholic Church and are frequently in conflict with the USCCB, but they are not fringe. An interesting theological and ecclesiological phenomenon within the Roman Catholic Church is the variety of thought within the church. Joe Biden and Clarence Thomas are both extremely devout Catholics, but they definitely disagree on a variety of theological positions.
