The people from Crete are wonderful people, it sure is sad to compare them to such a vile person

You're probably just making a joke, but that's not the etymology of "cretin".

Cretin became a medical term for Congenital iodine deficiency syndrome in the 18th century, from an Occitan and an Alpine French expression, prevalent in a region where persons with such a condition were especially common.
