But yeah, this seems incredibly irritating. What if the mother is Jewish? Muslim? Most of the hospitals I've seen are associated with one church or another, although I don't get why. Are people consenting to that BS when they choose a hospital?
It surprises me that an even semi intelligent catholic person thinks infant baptism makes even the slightest bit of difference. Even people I know who are for baptism think it's stupid. And stealth baptism? Wouldn't the sneakiness negate the whole thing?
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
