Ah. The Cretins. Paul said of them in his letter “Put them in mind to be in subjection to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready unto every good work, to speak evil of no man, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all meekness toward all men. For we also once were foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another. "

*edit The later part of the excerpt is the discription of a Cretin, and Paul is saying "we were all like this at one time before we knew Christ" but the Cretes were renown for this "assholedness" especially.

Cretins, not Cretans.
