***If you're baptized, you're Catholic. You just don't know it ;-)***

I was baptized as an infant (Methodist variety -- spritzed on the noggin before I could think) and as an believer (Southern Baptist -- dunked by Charles Stanley).

Thought historic Catholics went nutzoid over Anabaptist rebaptisms!

Anabaptist rebaptisms

They had a thing about repetitive redundancies being repeated too often.

Wait a second, you hadn't reached the age of reason when you were an infant, but you couldn't think? What've you been brainwashed by Kate Michelman?

So will you change the Creed to say "I believe in not more than two baptisms for the forgiveness of sins" or "I believe in as many baptisms as necessary for the forgiveness of sins"?
