Does that mean if a Baptist and Catholic or two Baptists wed in a Baptist church with a Baptist preacher that any children are considered bastards (or whatever the proper term for unmarried parents is)?

Interesting question. I thought the term "bastard" was more a legal definition that addressed property and financial assets.

Interesting. I don’t know. I do know the guy the English called William the conquerer for conquering England in 1066 is called Guillume le Batard by the French so that word goes way back.

Trivia: They call lots of things differently. Syphilis in England was “The French pox” while in France it was “The English pox.”
