Must have been a Baptist like Bubba. No truly born-again Christian could become a Catholic.

I assume he was a baptized Baptist. Bubba was not??

When one is baptized "in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost," one is born again in Christ, whether it was done in the Baptist church, Methodist, Catholic, or the Jordan River. The Catholic church recognizes such Protestant baptism, for those who wish to convert, to join the Catholic church.

Now, if the Catholic church can recognize the validity of your baptism, why can't you return the same respect?
