[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 1193417, member: 12952"] [h=1]Federal government now requiring churches to get permits for Baptisms[/h] As if it wasn’t involved in people’s private lives enough, the [B]federal government[/B] wants to regulate [B]baptisms[/B], requiring a special-use permit for ceremonies in public waters. The policy was recently enforced by the National Park Service, which — spontaneity be damned — requires a 48-hour advance notice of baptisms, according to Todd Starnes at [URL="http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/08/30/btodd-american-dispatchb-feds-forced-churches-to-get-baptism-permits/?intcmp=HPBucket"]Fox News[/URL]. “If the Holy Spirit is working on Sunday morning, you’re going to baptize Sunday afternoon,” Dennis Purcell told The Salem News, according to Starnes. “You may not know ahead of time.” [/QUOTE]
