I was never baptised as a baby and the reasons are none of your business but I was wondering should I get baptised? My mother is Anglican and my father is Cathlic. So should I and which one, Anglican or Cathlic?

Should you?

That all depends on how you feel, I don't think anyone here can tell you the right answer. Don't do it for your parents, don't do it for us...Do it because it's what you want and believe in.

As for which one, is there one you feel more strongly about? If you feel strongly about both perhaps it could even be arranged to have a combination with members of both groups present (not sure about this as I know at least some Catholics would not be happy with that idea...but never know till you try).

Bottom line, do what matters to you as cheesey as that may sound.

I would, but do what you want to do as Agnostic said.

I very much agree with Agnostic on this one. None of us, can make up your mind. When it comes to religion, it is all about you, and what you believe in.

Now about which baptism....well... Catholics Sprinkle and depending on the denominations the others do full submersion.

I agree with Amy, there's no way for us to help you. It's something you have to figure out on your own, as there is no right or wrong answer.

I think I'm baptised, dunno. :P All I know is that my brother is.

I have been, and I can go on about it, but it does need to be your choice.

I know of a place that can help you if you want me to PM you
