[Bill Clinton] A Southern Baptist with a penchant for carrying around big bibles took communion during a Roman Catholic Mass in Africa in 1998. [the wrong way]

Oh, you know us wacky Southern Baptists. After carrying around our "big bibles", our arms are too tired to cross them. The Methodists (Bush) obviously don't have this problem.

LOL. The better for thunking the Clintons of the world over the head with. I am quite sure that most Southern Baptists who truly practice and live their faith would not receive communion in a Catholic Church. I have the greatest respect for those who acknowledge differences and still can agree on certain matters.

But if someone says they are Baptist and they receive communion a light goes off. Either they do not truly know and/or practice their faith. Or they think communion in the Catholic church holds no special meaning and rules regarding its reception can be flouted.

Sounds like someone who goes through the motions but does not have any actual faith.
