Best Answer
Roman Catholic AnswerBeing a Godparent is a very solemn responsibility, the godparent assumes an obligation to instruct the child in the event of the death or neglect of the parents, in order to fulfill the baptismal promises. Being a godparent creates a spiritual relationship that is recognized in ecclesiastical law. Being a Methodist would tend to give the impression that you were not a very good, practicing Catholic, and thus would not be qualified to take on the responsibilities before God of raising the child in the Catholic faith while giving a good example of living the Catholic faith.
