Under normal circumstances, only a bishop, priest, or deacon should baptize anyone into the Catholic faith. In danger of death, ANYONE, even a non-baptized person may baptize, so to answer your question, yes, a Russian Orthodox Christian could baptize a person if that person was in danger of death, and they were not already baptized. The only caveat is that the baptism must be reported to the nearest Catholic parish or priest at the earliest opportunity.

I was baptized a Roman Catholic but confirmed Orthodox and I married a Greek Orthodox can I have my nephew baptized in a Catholic Church?
Since you are confirmed Orthodox and married a Greek Orthodox, the Orthodox Church requires that any children you may have should be baptized Orthodox. Also, as an Orthodox, you are not allowed to baptize your nephew or any other person in a catholic church. From the Catholic point of view, unless your nephew is to be reared a Catholic, he may not be baptized in the Catholic Church. If he is to be reared Catholic, either by his parents or godparents, the Church will receive him. No you are GREEK orthodox u must not I reapeat not baptisma your child at a catholic church.

Can a child who is baptised Catholic be converted to Coptic Orthodox?
People can be converted to whatever they want.Roman Catholic AnswerIf you are baptized Catholic, then you are bound by the laws of the Catholic Church. This is one of the reasons that, outside of a danger of death, a priest will not baptize an infant without assurance that the child will be raised in the faith. For a Catholic go "convert" to some other religion, including Coptic Orthodox, is known as apostasy and is very serious with respect to their eternal salvation. You would have to check with a priest, the technical term for converting to an Orthodox faith might be schism instead of apostasy. Anyway, it would be a serious sin.
