Sadly, according to some freepers, that mere fact alone means that Scalia "wasn't a Christian".

I'd like to know who these "some" Freeper are who would assert that. It's usually some FRoman Catholics who insist that anyone who isn't a Catholic cannot be a Christian.

I have a deep respect and appreciation for Justice Scalia and his death is a tragedy for ALL Conservatives especially at this time. Would that the other five Catholic justices had his same convictions.

Two of the ones I pinged in my original comment on this thread. Both were on a Ted Cruz thread asserting that Ted Cruz's family didn't "become" Christian until they switched to Southern Baptist. Being baptized in another Christian denomination didn't count, according to them.

Also, from various threads, I've seen at least a dozen FReepers assert that in order to be "Christian", you must be able to cite "the exact moment who were saved". I would be happy to copy and paste those comments if you don't believe they were made here.

As a lifelong Catholic, Scalia never claimed to have an "exact moment" when he was "saved", therefore, by their own definition, he was "not a Christian"
