    absolutely nothing, apart from the fact that there were some suggestions that some parents and/or priests may not be taking the sacrament seriously and may be allowing non Catholics to be God parents of a Catholic child which if it does happen is a liturgical abuse which the Church is rife with since the heterodox revolution post Vatican II and so the morph in to a general liturgical abuse discussion.

    What is the heterodox revolution?

    Thank you, I was seriously asking as I was not sure if they were related or not, I had lost track and found it hard to follow but thanks for the welcome.

    Essentially it is a movement for change within the Catholic Church, a kind of mini protestant revolution that has been going on since Vatican II. Others call it "the smoke of Satan in the Vatican".

    The movement erroneously uses certain ambiguities in Vatican II and the term "the spirit of Vatican II" to support certain changes that Vatican II never mentioned or intended. In some cases indults have been sought to introduce certain practices under false pretexts and then misrepresented to the congregations to encourage their adoption.

    What you see today, the apostasy of many and the growing disregard for Church Teaching, is the result.

    However there are still a number of Catholics who are orthodox and who are challenging these changes and those who promulgate them.

    Mod: As the OP's question was answered some time back, I'm closing this before it degenerates into personal abuse. Feel free to continue this on a new thread, but be civil.
