Diversity matters on the Supreme Court....

...unless it involves the cultural traditions/religious tradition of the majority of the population.

Christianity Today on the "Post-Protestant Supreme Court."

Personally, I'm not sure that "diversity" matters all that much in this context, particularly since Supreme Court justices are molded by Ivy League culture and legal culture far more than they are by things like ethnicity or religion.  But if we are going to play the "diversity" card for the official minorities, then shouldn't it matter when we are talking about the majority of the population?

I'd be just as happy to drop all talk about diversity, but you know that is not going to happen when Obama appoints the first Asian or first disable female Polynesian or whatever.
