Ping!
I will catch hell for this but.
Maybe one should ask the fake pope?
Well, at least “the Sanctifier” sound better but more mysterious than the misstatement “Father, Son and Whole Wheat Toast.” as one story about a child learning about the Trinity is suppose to have said. (humor and sarcasm)
I’m convinced that the influence of the devil keeps those who claim to be Catholic from doing what they can do properly properly. How many heretic priests are there who the Church has failed to excommunicate, but who are hell-bent on screwing up the Eucharist so it’s not valid?
Remember, God permits the existence of the devil for his own aims.
I like his last comment — especially about confessing schism and possible heresy.
**Just as in the case of the grandma and the bathroom sink, the child should be brought to a real church in short order to have the remaining ceremonies supplied, and the parents should make a good, solid confession (including confessing schism and possible heresy) to be received back into the good graces of our Holy Mother Church.**
What’s keeping anybody from doing it? A secret satanist could baptize a bunch of people, register it and call it good. Cool. I guess if authority doesn’t matter then why have a pope or priests or any hierarchy for that matter. Make it a free for all. Let everyone make up their own versions of baptism. Groovy.
