Southern Baptists hate Catholics. I am a life long Southern Baptist (I don’t agree on the hating Catholics part), and noticed it first as a child in 1960 (Kennedy). Cruz should disqualify himself from commenting on the Pope until and unless he repudiates the Southern Baptist animus toward Catholics.
Has Cruz commented on the Pope?
I haven’t heard anything about that.
I was raised Southern Baptist also. They do not hate Catholics. They did about 80 years ago but they have changed a lot.
Baptists agree with Catholics about abortion, for example, and that is very important to Baptists AND Catholics. And me, by the way.
