North Carolina School Baptizes 100 Kids Without Parents’ Permission

Unadulterated BS you made up...or read on some left loon site

Nope, pure fact. You clearly have never worked with children in an evangelical church, I did for more than two decades and it was taught to us every year the importance of getting kids to accept Christ early.

I'm a baptized Methodist Christian myself but I still find this to be wrong since God gave everybody free will and He doesn't force anybody to follow Him who doesn't want to.

If you give me a child until he is seven then I will give you the man.

Catholics don't babtize in a galvanized cattle trough. I'm not buying the whole story. Can't read it all anyway, pay wall.

"In most cases, the parish priest or deacon administers the sacrament, anointing the person being baptized with oils, and pouring blessed water over the child or adult’s head not just once but three times."

No way would a Catholic priest dunk a kid in a cattle watering trough as depicted in the OP's article. I call bullshit on it.

The OP has to be a lie. Parents must give consent to have their kids baptized. Once adults it's up to them. As a lifelong Christian there would be a lawsuit. I'd be the one submitting it.

Do agnostic foreign posters really think Baptism includes hormones and life changing surgery? Relax lefties, Baptism doesn't hurt and they don't shoot Holy Water in a kid's veins, they just sprinkle it on them.

Yes, a priest sprinkles holy water on the head. It's not like some religions that actually dunk the whole body.

Doesn't matter if the parent doesn't consent. Clear overstepping.

I smell some lawsuits.....

Bullshit.

Bullshit.

I would if I were in their position. Make the admins lives a nightmare. Baptism happens when parents are there to share.

It is amazing that you even bring up this issue and compare it.

"who said a handful of students were scheduled to receive the sacrament and the others “just began to respond to the presence of the Lord.”

sounds like the students volunteered.

This is OK?

The parents paid money for this service ... how is this any of your business? ... Baptism doesn't require parental permission in this particular church, so parents joining this church can expect their children to be baptized ...

They (parents) expect to be present or arrange this themselves.
Not a surprise.

If you try to give your kid a good education in a Catholic School, you must be fully aware that the curriculum sometimes extends to Christian beliefs even if you are not Catholic. Chances are the school informed parents that it would offer a mass baptism and they could opt out or go along with it. Parental consent for something like this is unnecessary.

Another manifestation of Christian arrogance.

Would baptism interfere with maths and stuff?

American children can multitask.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

...and let's not forget they also baptize the dead..presumably without their permission, as well~

Yet another manifestation of arrogance.

Baptists and Pentecostals don't believe in infant baptism.

True.

Indeed, Anabaptist dogma holds that only adults should be baptized since an adult alone can understand and consent to what it means to accept Christ as one’s ‘lord and savior’ – even if one had been baptized as an infant or child.
