matrixrefugee: the word 'refugee' in electric green with a background of green matrix code (Pope_Benedict_XVI)
[personal profile] matrixrefugee
I've been hanging around on the forums of Catholic Answers, a mixed group of Catholic layfolks and priests who gladly answer people's questions about Catholicism. It's generally a good hang-out (aside from the one or two people who've nagged me for odd things, but there's always going to be one Mrs. Tolliver somewhere...).

But once in a while you get a thread dealing with something genuinely odd. The background: someone came on the forum asking if it was possible for a person's baptism to be annulled (like a marriage, apparently). It seems this person is the godparent to a relative's now-14 year old daughter, and they had a falling out with the relative. Now they're trying to mend bridges and yet, the relative is telling them they aren't the daughter's godparent any more since the relative "had the daughter re-baptized". Head-scratching and speculation ensues, till a priest sets everything right on "re-baptism":
