Kennedy Catholicism Is Like
a: Kennedy catholicism ~
b: Adam Sandler Judaism
What: Ask yourself this question:
Suppose Edward Moore Kennedy had been born a Methodist and his wife had been, say, Presbyterian.
Can you imagine him converting to Catholicism the way, eg, Brownback, Bork and Beckwith have?
Bit of a stretch to imagine, isn't it? Kennedy Catholicism is like Adam Sandler Judaism - a rich tribal identity, not reflective of assent to a series of theological propositions.
