Talk:Emergency baptism

Baptism of embryos

The Catholic Church has recently promulgated a document called Dignitas Personae which unequivocally states that embryos are fully human persons. In this context, it would be useful to obtain more information on whether it is valid and licit to baptize embryos in certain exceptional circumstances. ADM (talk) 10:13, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

unreliable source

The section on the Latin Catholic Church cites todayscatholicworld.com (note 5), which is a sort of blog that asserts that all popes since John XXIII have been false "anti-popes," "manifest heretics," and supporters of the "Vatican II sect," but that this information has been covered up by the "jewish[sic] controlled media." Can we replaces this with a more reliable source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.68.227.154 (talk) 17:43, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Conditional Baptism

The source (Lehmkuhl, n, 61) is listed for the following statement:

The Ritual further says that when the water can flow upon the head of the infant the sacrament is to be administered absolutely; but if it can be poured only on some other part of the body, baptism is indeed to be conferred, but it must be conditionally repeated in case the child survives its birth. In these last two cases, the rubric of the Ritual supposes that the infant has partly emerged from the womb. For if the fetus was entirely enclosed, baptism is to be repeated conditionally in all cases.

However, the document being referenced (the Roman Ritual) does not say this in the latest version that I am able to locate (1964). Ender Octanus (talk) 01:53, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

I am marking the claim as dubious. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ender Octanus (talk • contribs) 01:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
