[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids were baptised as infants in the Lutheran Church which I think has essentially the same service as the Catholic Church. The parents are promising to raise the child in the church and, yes, do renounce Satan. I think you should not do it if you can not seriously make these vows. I think you are lying before God which is a serious sin. If you can't raise the child in the church, let them make the decision as adults. And yes, at least among Lutherans, [b]at least one parent needs to be an active member of the church[/b].[/quote] This is true of Catholicism as well. You also need an active Catholic godparent. So not just your BFF or your SIL, but someone who means the vows. I agree that it is better for the parents to not do this just to make the grandparents happy. These are serious vows. --a practicing Catholic[/quote]
