[quote=Anonymous]I agree with PPs who think you can't / shouldn't just show up at a church for baptism and then never go back. Most churches require at least a meeting with the priest, and I think that would be very awkward if you did not attend. My DH is an atheist raised by Catholics; I am Protestant but don't currently attend church. I actually would like to baptize our child but I don't see how I could so until we are active members of a church community again. That's what baptism is about. My mom is disappointed because she sews and wanted to make a fancy baptism gown. My MIL is disappointed because she is devout. But -- and this is mean and unfair -- I kind of blame her for DH's atheism and that makes me less accommodating of her on church-going issues.[/quote]
