Delete - this is not a notable, widely-used term. It was coined/popularised by Christopher Ferrara whose article was itself subject to a deletion discussion which ended as no consensus. He's probably only just notable, but his individual ideas are likely not. Not sure why this was recreated after the last deletion. Suggest closing admin considers salting the title.

Delete - It's a rather unclear neologism used in intra-Church debates, apparently only in the U.S. context. In effect, it's just a bit of unspecific name-calling used by some traditionalists to denigrate certain converts as not being real Catholics. If it needs to be in WP at all, mention it in the Ferrara article. -- Bistropha (talk) 00:51, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
