According to the keys that Ryan Burge points out with US data, the correct question would not be what is happening with Catholicism, because it is not growing as a percentage of the population. The question would rather be why many Catholics who were already so in cultural terms and by being baptized are adopting their own version of the "enchantment of the world" instead of embracing the revitalized social doctrine proposed by the Pope and getting involved in social work. Burge also points out an interesting idea: the partisan divide is so strong that believers shape their religion with the slogans of the day from their preferred parties, not the other way around.
