So what happens if a baby is born on a deserted island where there's no clean water to dunk the baby in?

>>700687

It's not about clean water, it's about holy water

>The age of gnostic retards is over

>The time of the muslim idiot has arived

Don't you have any goats nearby to keep you occupied?

Because Catholics are retarded and think babies will go to Hell if you don't Baptize them, even though salvation comes by grace through faith. A baby is not even developed enough to have faith or a lack thereof, and is certainly not capable of sin, so why would it need to be saved? Please don't refer to Catholics as Christian.

Orthodoxy doesnt believe this, but believes in sacrament of baptism. Your argument is invalid

Because it's the new covenant. Holy spirit protects us.

Mutilating your cock doesn't please God.

Baptism is normally done in a body of running water, by triple immersion.

If not, then in a baptistry (which has become the normalized method in the East).

If not, then water is poured on the baptized (which has become the normalized method in the West).

If not, then water is sprinkled on the baptized.

If not, then anything that contains water can be used, even spit.

Are you born stupid or did you learn it? The Eastern Orthodox aren't monophysites, the Oriental Orthodox are.

>>700819

Are you born stupid or did you learn it? The priest in the OP isn't Catholic, and Orthodox do not believe children are automatically condemned if they aren't baptized.

>certainly not capable of sin

All of man inherits sin from the generation of Adam.

From holy writ, in Psalm 51:5 –

Indeed, I was born guilty, a sinner when my mother conceived me.

Gen. 8:21 –

I will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the intent of man's heart is evil from his youth ; and I will never again destroy every living thing, as I have done.

Romans 3:23 –

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God

>no clean water to dunk the baby in?

Then the baby dies, as there is no water for it to drink either.

That's not even a Roman priest for Pete's sake. What, looking on the front page, is the the Orthodox's turn to get raided this week? I'm sure it will switch around with Catholics or maybe Vitamin K Man when something bad happens to them, too.

It's almost as if there are certain boards around here that take exception to a Christian community on a Sri Lankan pottery baking forum and have nothing better to do except sow discordance here.

>>700819

What are you even on about? If they're below the age of reason and die before baptism then they go to purgatory in cath theology, not hell.

They're not crossing their arms but i believe that is the blessing you get when you don't eat the bread and wine. Usually when i did that it was just the father/priest saying a blessing to you.
