Harming the innocent party is not the way to go.

If someone gets exposed to a deadly and infectious disease they get quarantined until they’re shown to be healthy.

Guilt or innocence has nothing to do with it.

I’m not pro-LDS but this action of theirs certainly makes practical sense in a time when queers brag about infiltrating and destroying religions from within.

Tough call. Neither is sanctioning an unnatural family relationship.

Knowing the homo lobby, they would use their "baptized children" as a battering ram to tear down the church. Kids raised by homo couples have little hope of turning out normal.

If they beat the odds, they can always apply at age 18. I don't see anyway to win this thing.

This isn’t exactly an oddity. Most religions require that the parents and God Parents be members in good standing of the Church in order to have a baptism performed for the child.

This harms no one. They are trying to infiltrate this church. There is plenty of biblical admonition to cast out heretics. It's a shame that a child is being used as a tool, but that guild will fall on these sexual reprobates.

Therefore gay-married Mormon people should not manufacture or adopt kids.

Oops --- I meant this for JimRed----

Not sure this is harming the innocent. The LDS leadership may argue it does no harm for a person not to be baptized until they're 18 and can make their own decision in the matter.

Mormon baptism is not the same as Catholic/Christian baptism -- they are different in kind --- but I know that in the Catholic Church, infant baptism must be predicated on the well-founded expectation that the child will be raised Catholic. This is why you can't just go about grabbing kids and baptizing them.

If the parents think their same-sex "marriage" is fundamentally right, and therefore the Mormons are fundamentally wrong, why would they want their child to be baptized Mormon? If they did, it would seem like a set-up to me.
