Contrary to online chatter, we are not in a “Catholic moment.” By contrast, evangelical Protestants boast remarkably high conversion and retention rates and healthier levels of practical piety—church attendance, Bible reading, catechesis. The usual evidence for this kind of Catholic moment is JD Vance—both his person and his invocation of Catholic theological concepts in public. The previous “Catholic moment,” lasting from 1995 to 2002 by Bottum’s reckoning, failed to fill the Mainline Protestant void. If there is a new “Catholic moment,” it will probably be short-lived.
