So it's kind of like if you were baptized into the Catholic Church as an infant, you might be sort of living your life as a Catholic based on vibes. Whereas if you're a convert like J.D. Vance type, you might be like extremely into culture. Medieval theology.

I saw someone online some years ago say something like, every lifelong Catholic I've ever met is like, I think we're supposed to give this food to poor people. And every adult convert is like, the archon of Constantinople's epistle on the Pentecostal rights of the Eucharist clearly states women shouldn't have driver's licenses.

You point out in your piece for Vox that while there aren't tons of Catholic converts out there, there are some particularly loud ones, like our very online vice president. Are the converts creating tension in parishes around the country, in dioceses around the country, or is this something that you mostly experience online?

Yeah, what's the draw for the converts? I mean, there's any number of religious sects you could glom onto if you're looking for some sort of sense of community or theology. Why Catholicism? And why, you know, the theology of Thomas Aquinas?
