Infant Baptism in the age of COVID

A font on a trolley?! Some of the fonts in English churches go back to the 12th century, beautifully carved solid stone objects that are masterpieces of stone-masonry. Wheeling in an ikea chipboard plinth fitted with a kitchen sink filled with tap water blessed by a guy in a full length dress armed with a water pistol does not really do it for me. It’s rather like the church baptismal equivalent of a McDonald’s drive-through. 99cents and a squirt of McSaints holy water. (Carbonated - add 10 cents). One step away from having vending machine outside on the church wall for the same purpose. Choose your religion, choose what area you want baptised or circumcised, insert baby, insert 25cents and press the correct button.

And, the priest must have precise aim to hit the right spot on the forehead. We don’t want the poor baby to go to purgatory if he dies without being properly baptized.

You have just reminded me of an event that I experienced once when laid up in hospital. There was an elderly woman in the bed next to me, and her family visited and started talking religion at her. The woman replied that she did not want to be a Catholic, and her son replied, (and this is true, I swear it!) “But you already are a catholic. We had the priest come here and baptise you as a Catholic!” She replied, “Well I do not remember that!” He replied “Well, you were asleep at the time.” Sometimes, life can become surreal.
 
The official answer to your question is that it is flatulent cows that are the main cause of pollution, and thus the clouds of methane setting over the cities is all the farmers fault. If everyone went vegan the problem would be solved. I enclose the evidence. Deny it if you can!
BTD, I don't know whether to give that a thumbs up, a haha, or a sad emoji.
So 👍😆😞
