from AMERICA magazine dot-com article
Vance is tied to an ideology known as
Catholic Integralism
an intellectual movement that,
experts say,
prefers a "soft power" approach
to exerting Christian influence over society.
Thinkers in the movement herald the importance
of a "Christian strategic adviser" to people in power.
. . .Integralists once viewed Trump as a figure
similar to Constantine the Great, the Roman
emperor who converted to Christianity. . .
Vance, for his part, spoke at a 2022 gathering
at Steubenville, OH Franciscan University that
was widely associated with Integralism and
"New right politics". Vance has yet to answer
questions regarding his own thoughts on
Catholic integralism
