Baptism and HistoryI asked, "Are you saying that what may have been life-threatening and dangerous differences regarding baptism way back which have been changed in the perceptions of religious people generally? Or are you saying that there was just a lot of hysteria at times in Christian history and there isn’t now?" Reverend Pelletier leaned forward. "Of course, when you have religion which is made into a state religion or religion which is involved in politics you will always have extremes. We saw this in the early days of the Catholic church and we saw it in the early period of the Protestant church as well. When you have a politicized church, then you have extremes." |
