No, baptism in the Catholic Church automatically means that you are bound to all the laws of the Rite in which you are baptized. Orthodox Churches are in schism, however, there is a Catholic Rite for each of the Orthodox Churches. When the Orthodox split, half of them remained with the Catholic Church, so there is a Greek Uniate Rite as well as a Greek Orthodox Church. A Catholic has no problem with going to the sacraments in another Rite.

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.

Are you considered Catholic if you are a Greek Orthodox?

A:You are what you wish to be. Your own personal religious beliefs can only be decided by you, so you could choose to be Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, or indeed not hold any religious commitment at all. It is entirely up to you..Catholic AnswerYou follow the rite of either parent, most likely the rite in which you were baptized. However, the Orthodox Churches are not technically separate rites, they are in schism. If you mother is Catholic, and you were baptized in the Catholic Church, then you follow whatever rite that she is. If you baptized in the Greek Orthodox Church, your baptism is valid, but you need to convert, so you need to speak with a priest.

Can children be baptized Orthodox and Catholic?

No, because Christians can only be baptized once, as we say in the Creed: "I acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins." The Pope has stated that he accepts all Orthodox baptisms as valid, but not all Orthodox churches accept Roman Catholic baptisms as being valid (because Catholics sprinkle with water, rather than fully immerse), so a child baptized in an Orthodox Church would be accepted as valid by both.
