This news won't go over well in the bathhouses.
God had given men and women free will to choose whether “spontaneously to accept salvation . . . the Christian faith is not imposed on anyone, it is a gift, an offer to mankind”.
How does the pope reconcile this teaching with infant baptism?
I am more worried about the churches, myself.
"This news won't go over well in the bathhouses."
Bathhouses?! This won't even go over very well in many American church congregations!!
