Does not the SBC require Catholic converts to the SBC to be re-baptized by immersion in rejection of their valid infant baptism? Even the Catholic Church recognizes a protestant baptism which uses the trinitarian formula.
Like I said, oppositional. By design.
Im pretty sure we require everyone who is not transferring a letter of southern baptist membership to be baptized symbolic of their born again nature but never have I heard a preacher from my own pew since say 1965 oe so when I woulda been paying attention rail against catholics or other more orthodox faiths...ever
And I have heard my preacher speak well of john paul II and saint peter
I have also heard Aquinus and Augustine and More quoted
This animosity you fear is at least in my SBC a thing of the old days tension...likely native versus immigrant based
We incorporated all the parochial schools into our sports and dances and team leagues in Mississippi
And the closer to the coast the more Catholics and various Lent days
What kills me here is most catholics on the forum are yankees or west coast.
Yet yall rail about protestants being against you...like we are a threat
He$$...where yall are youre the majority....why so defensive
I went to a Catholic funeral service at St Ignacious last month in Mobile
The father was magnanimous to all of us ....even told we prods in the crowd we could kneel if we wanted and gave instruction on the ...repeated praise phrases....not sure the name for that
You guys act like the Huguenots are at the gate.....ive never been taught anything but accomodation to other Christian faiths
