This time on the Crossing the Streams, the boys discuss Roman Catholicism coming to the United States from 1850-1906. Why do the Christians hate each other? Does Austin become self-aware about Judaism during a statistical point? Does Nick start to understand why Christianity is weird? Does Tristan realize that agnostics are a minority at this point? All the while they discuss the article Roman Catholics and Immigration in Nineteenth-Century America, The Nineteenth Century, Divining America: Religion in American History by Julie Byrne.
