The problem is not that J.D. Vance is a Catholic convert, and it’s lazy and hurtful to other converts to attack him for that. The problem is that his catechesis seems to have omitted Catholic Social Teaching.

This is an embarrassing letter. The idea that ecclesial abuse of children was a result of the 1960s, a supposed collapse of moral theology, and “conciliarity” is an embarrassingly wrong explanation for the systemic abuse of children and its coverup.
