1/ THREAD religious and racial demographics of the supreme court: 
2/ As @Sean__Last has talked about, Catholics are to the left of Protestants, and this is also true when looking at judges. ideasanddata.wordpress.com/2019/08/22/the…
3/ Wanted to see how many important 20th century cases there were where if only white protestants voted, the result would be different. This was true for Miranda v AZ which I have discussed here:

4/ It was also true for Plyer v Doe which forced the govt to pay for illegal immigrant schooling. oyez.org/cases/1981/80-…
5/ Other important 20th century cases were decided with enough of a majority where demographics didn't matter:
Roe v Wade
Brown v Board of Education
Loving v VA
Griggs v Duke Power
Roe v Wade
Brown v Board of Education
Loving v VA
Griggs v Duke Power
6/ Looking at expansion of LGBT rights recently 3/5 votes for legalizing gay marriage (Obergefell) were Jewish with the remaing being white catholic and Hispanic catholic.
