If so, why did you choose to post a video where the child was accidentally dropped? It seems that if your point was about induction into the church, you could have posted any of thousands of videos where a baptism went off without a hitch.

Precisely. Even as such I don't think that silly ritual is abusive per se. They did it to me and don't remember a thing nor I was traumatized. My daughter isn't baptized, nor did I accept her mother proposal to pierce her ears for earrings. That's something for her to want later on if she wishes so. Nor do I tell her the best football team is SLB. If she chooses FCP or SCP, our arch-rivals then I will only feel sad for the rolling onslaught. It would certainly entertain family night fo sho.

Christian activist plans to sue NFL because Shakira and J-Lo performances endangered his eternal soul

Well it is a golden age of Christianity in the US so I guess anything is possible.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It's the eternal bank account that's most important to many modern christians.

A number of venues across the United Kingdom have canceled plans for Franklin Graham to speak following backlash against homophobic and Islamophobic comments made by the evangelical pastor.
Graham has spoken out against Islam, which he has called an "evil" religion, as well as homosexuality and has called for former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D), the first high-profile openly gay presidential candidate, to be "repentant" about his sexuality.

Trial begins for archaeologist accused of forging earliest portrayal of Jesus' crucifixion
A criminal trial has begun of an archaeologist accused of forging a trove of Roman artifacts that allegedly show a third-century depiction of Jesus' crucifixion, Egyptian hieroglyphics and the early use of the Basque language.
Gil claimed the graffiti on the artifacts showed very early links between the Roman settlement in Spain and the Basque language; he also claimed that a drawing of three crosses scratched on a piece of ancient pottery was the earliest known portrayal of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
But other archaeologists have disputed the finds. Among other major discrepancies, they pointed out that some of the language of the graffiti shows that it was made in modern times.
Gil and his former colleagues, geologist Óscar Escribano and materials analyst Rubén Cerdán, say they are not guilty of any deception.

And he complains of being 'ostracised'?
Almost as bad as the one with the ossuary and the temple dedication.
