I mean, why would God really care if a baby is sprinkled with cold water or not? Still, if it makes people feel better by doing it, I don't see the harm in it either. Whatever floats your boat. I'm sorry to hear about your aunt. I hope you get some good news there.....Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186635305290587700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18739705.post-19276521609710263102008-03-19T08:17:00.000-04:002008-03-19T08:17:00.000-04:00Baptizing a child is only for everyone else.

I'm pretty sure God wasn't punishing her for anything. It was all microbes, genes, and viruses.Creative-Type Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13594687030412942701noreply@blogger.com
