Read on Deacon’s Bench Today:

I wonder if someone more knowledgeable than me can inform this fellow who commented:
“Talk about a mere ceremony incorporating a baby into Christianity which claims to be the religion revealed by God definitely implies that the ceremony matters more than religious faith. It implies that babies not baptised are deprived or inferior. Welby’s attitude to baptism like the Catholic attitude needs to be seen for the nastiness it is. Catholicism holds that a baby is estranged from God and therefore evil until baptism.”
