The RCC does NOT recognize the Mormon baptism as valid, IIRC.

not surprised.....the RCC doesn't recognize Baptist baptisms, and the Baptists don't recognize RCC baptisms......actuallt, Baptists have a dificult time recognizing ANY Baptisms ....and I wonder if the RCC recognize other Baptisms (I don't know that answer).

They also have a difficult time recognizing each other at the liquor store.

You're going to have to source that... good luck.

... and the Baptists don't recognize RCC baptisms...

This is true.

...and I wonder if the RCC recognize other Baptisms (I don't know that answer).

The Church doesn't "rebaptize" those who have been baptized in the Trinitarian formula.

Baldfaced Lie.

I was baptized at age 14 in a Nazarene Church. I joined my current Baptist church 2 years ago and my Nazarene baptism was recognized and accepted.

I believe that is incorrect. Would a Catholic care to comment on this.

Yes the Catholic church accepts other Christian baptism who were baptized in the name of the father,son,and holy spirit.

I'm afraid you are misinformed about Catholic doctrine on baptism, as you can read HERE.

The Catholic Church recognizes almost all Christians' baptism. I (Catholic) married my husband Don-o (Baptist) and the Cath. Diocese looked at the documentation related to Don-o's baptism and said that was just fine.
