Well i am a catholic, Thank you!

so when you ask this question i will answer.

A catholic might want to baptise its young one because it might want it to wash away its original sin. OR it might want to become a christian. this is another person. being baptised as a child will not save you from hell. you have to except jesus as your savior.

Can your son be batized as Catholic if you are an Anglican?

Yes, a child could be baptized Catholic if the parents were Anglican and if the parents agreed to raise the child Catholic. This would be a very unique circumstance because most parents chose to have their children baptized and raised in their own religion. A unique circumstance would be if the Anglican parents were consconverting to Catholicism but had not finished their RCIA instructions but wanted baby baptized Catholic.


Can a child of two Catholics one being divorced be baptized?

According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the base rule for who can be baptized is "Every person not yet baptized and only such a person is able to be baptized." http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p2s2c1a1.htm#1246 Given that children with one non-Catholic parent are regularly baptized, I would imagine it is possible, but if the divorced parent re-married, without annulment, the other parent of the child then there would be grave concerns about the likelihood of the child being raised in the Faith. Most priests would not agree to such a baptism. If the parents were divorced after the child was conceived, or if the divorced parent also has an annulment, then I can't think of any reason that the child could not be baptized.


Can a child get baptized if one parent does not practice a religion?

Roman Catholic AnswerA child must have at least one parent who is practicing their religion and willing to bring the child up in the faith to be baptized. A priest would normally refuse baptism if there is no certainly whatsoever that the child will be brought up in the faith. It would not be fair to the child.


Can a child be baptized in the Catholic Church if the parents are gay or lesbian?

Catholic Answer This is a complicated question that can only be answered by the parish priest in charge of the parish in which the child resides. To be baptized there MUST be a well-founded hope that the child will be raised as a Christian. If the the mother or father raising the child is a practicing Catholic then there should be no problem. However, if the child is living with a parent who is engaging in a sinful lifestyle and obviously disregarding Church teachings then I think the possibility of a well-founded hope would be pretty slim.

How can a child of a Lutheran and Catholic parent be baptised to make both parents happy?

A person can only be baptized once so baptizing in both churches would be redundant. Generally, when a non-Catholic marries a Catholic they are required to affirm that any children must be raised as Catholics before the Church will allow them to marry. Therefore, if they were married in a Catholic church the children should be baptized in a Catholic church. If the parents were not married in a Catholic church, then they have another problem. They need to regularize their marriage to be in full communion with the Catholic Church. They must arrange to have their marriage blessed by the Catholic Church.

Can a Catholic single mother have her baby baptized in the Catholic Church?

YES! The Catholic Church would NEVER refuse an innocent child that wishes to become a child of God! Sometimes a priest may DELAY (NEVER deny) a baptism if there is concern about the child being raised in the Catholic faith, but that should not be the case if the mother is Catholic.
