最高法院九名法官中首次有五名是天主教徒,形成宗教多数派。 For the first time, five of nine Supreme Court justices are Catholic, shaping a religious majority.

截至2025年9月30日,9名美国最高法院法官中有5名被确定为天主教徒,在法院历史上首次占多数。 As of September 30, 2025, five of the nine U.S. Supreme Court justices identify as Catholic, forming a majority for the first time in the Court’s history. 这一转变反映了更广泛的人口趋势,并使公众重新讨论个人信仰如何影响司法观点,特别是在堕胎、宗教自由和临终护理等问题上。 This shift reflects broader demographic trends and has renewed public discussion about how personal faith may influence judicial perspectives, particularly on issues like abortion, religious liberty, and end-of-life care. 虽然法官们强调他们致力于宪法法律和公正,但法律观察员指出,宗教背景可能间接地影响对道德和伦理问题的看法。 While justices emphasize their commitment to constitutional law and impartiality, legal observers note that religious backgrounds may indirectly shape views on moral and ethical questions. 法院继续根据法律先例和解释作出裁决,没有证据表明宗教团体进行了协调投票。 The Court continues to base rulings on legal precedent and interpretation, with no evidence of coordinated religious bloc voting. 关于宗教在公共机构中的作用的公众辩论依然存在,但法院继续将其体制重点放在法治上。 Public debate persists over the role of religion in public institutions, but the Court maintains its institutional focus on the rule of law.
