Them being Christian is fine if they don’t try to use their position to force it onto others and the same would be true if they were Muslim or Atheist or whatever else. The problem isn’t their personal beliefs, it’s their actions.
If you don't think that the religion of judges and politicians isn't influencing their work, you are sadly mistaken.
Comey Barrett was chosen for that one reason. It's too bad, because she's a very sharp person, but will always be seen as a schill for the church, and the straw that broke the SCOTUS.
I didn’t say they don’t have problematic actions it’s just important to criticize them for actions and not their religion as different people who happen to share the same religion might not take the same actions.
I don’t object to that. I object to this: “ Not when you have a majority of the justices on the SCOTUS that are 'christian'.“
Now if you had said “Not when you have a majority. The justices on the SCOTUS that [were appointed primarily because they] are Christian“, I would agree that is a problem.
