I’m Southern Baptist with Charismatic leanings....never ever seen in my life nasty Catholics like some here....its bizarre.... day in day out....swinging that metaphorical blade of the faith making pals

Did you grow up in a heavily Catholic area?

Because I did and this kind of behavior is NOTHING new to me. I endured plenty of it at school and work.

No

I grew up in Mississippi

Jackson to be precise back when it was white and safe

We had population of around 350000 metro

3 catholic churches and elementary schools
One catholic high school

So no....not like New Orleans or the Coast

Or Jersey

But I never felt this animosity..

And had extended family in Catholic church too

I did get the sense most were not as adherent as we were...nor as behavior oriented but more good works

Still do...the devout on this forum notwithstanding
