Actually, I got quite annoyed today. My mate wants to be married in a church in October. She went to see a Vicar today, he said cos non of them were baptized, they will have to be baptized before the bishop will give them the go ahead.
It's the same old crap all the time. People just using Religion as their own gain. They do it to get their kids in school's, they do it to get married in a church ( just cos its a nice building ) not because they see it as a religious thing. It's all a farce in todays ways. |
Does she go to Church anyway or does she just want to get married in one because, like you said, it's a nice building?
I can see why vicars want people to be baptised before marrying them in Church. It shows a bit more commitment to the faith. If you are not religious then you shoudn't be getting married in Church, in my opinion.
