>One word off in the magic water spell and you're going to hell forever!
Catholics are hilarious
Magic is a precise craft after all
>Let’s make it obvious I don’t know or care to know what I talk about.
Expand then
Who's throwing them in there??
they make the choice to be with God for eternity or not
>Why did you make me do this?
>You could have stopped this you moron why didn't you listen to me?
>You shouldn't have made me angry
>This is your fault
more r/atheism cringe. I'm not religious but as far as I'm aware the mainstream view (except credo Baptists) is that baptism saves but just because baptism is not performed does not necessarily mean the person is not saved through other means chosen by God. i.e. thief on cross
I'm a Baptist, and that is clearly false teaching. accepting Christ as your savior is what saves, not an act of man, so none can boast of their doing. baptism is just a right of passage.
Jesus told the Pharisees, "I would have mercy before sacrifice." By which he meant, If the priest had mercy and love in his heart, then the baptisms are perfectly valid.
Wait, if the priest is hateful you go to hell? That seems dumb
Christ saves, not man or his actions. not even true faith is man's for it is by the Spirit acting in us. shills in overdrive tonight. #freepalenstine
And you're source for that doctrine is???
>what if you died and wanted to go to heaven, but Jesus said "Sorry bro the priest that baptized you said it wrong"
That would be Donatism and is a heresy
God is infinitely just. So I don’t worry about that
>But Jesus. You knew the Priest would say the words wrong the entire time and did nothing.
Really sad that kids these days can't just grow up doing silly things and playing around without some moron recording them and putting it online for clicks.
There is literally no life in their eyes.
>WRONG WORD? TIME TO SUFFER IN HELL FOR ETERNITY
News is lying, that's Donatism and it's a heresy.
Anyone can perform a baptism, all that's required is 1. The baptizer is catholic and 2. The cleanest water available is used.
This is the procedure for emergency baptism, for example baptizing someone who is likely to die before a priest will become available.
Edit: I was wrong, the baptized doesn't need to be catholic.
> "If the ordinary minister is absent or impeded, a catechist or some other person deputed to this office by the local Ordinary, may lawfully confer baptism; indeed, in a case of necessity, any person who has the requisite intention may do so (canon 861 §2), even a non-Catholic or a non-Christian.[3][4]
>By "a case of necessity" is principally meant imminent danger of death because of either illness or an external threat. "The requisite intention" is, at the minimum level, the intention "to do what the Church does" through the rite of baptism.
In other words, a Muslim could baptize someone catholic in an emergency if they make a wholehearted attempt to mimic the ritual of baptism. There's no criteria for "correctness," and most people probably don't know the baptism ritual beyond the water and confession of faith
