I don't believe in infant Baptism.  I believe Baptism is a choice for a believer of any age who understands that choice.

The Bible gives the Church the model of babies being dedicated to the Lord, with parents promising to bring them up in the faith.  That being said, Hillary Clinton's spirit doesn't witness to mine.  She does not accept the inerrancy of Scripture or the authority of Scripture, and I wonder how many Biblical doctrines she rejects.  Does she believe in Salvation by Grace through Faith in Christ, and His Death and Resurrection?  Does she, indeed, believe in the physical death and resurrection of Christ?  These are not trivial questions for a Christian; they are matters of ETERNAL significance. 

Until such time that Hillary Clinton makes a personal declaration of faith that is what Scripture would indicate is sufficient, I will never allow Hillary Clinton to have any role in the spiritual instruction of my 12 year old son.  And I will raise my son to be able to recognize a Charlatan and a Heretic and reject their false doctrine.

I don't know the answers to that, FB, as I'm not a mind or heart reader.

I CAN guarantee you beyond any doubt in the world, though, that's she's literally 1000 times more likely to truly and devoutly hold these beliefs than Trump is.

That's weird. I wouldn't even object to having a conservative Christian baptize my kids (assuming they were old enough to understand it since I don't like infant baptism either.)

I wouldn't even disallow a Catholic priest from baptizing my kids, as long as it wasn't understood as a "Catholic baptism", although it's tough to imagine the scenario in which it would occur. The only people I wouldn't allow to baptize my kids (aside from obvious exclusions, child molesters, etc.) are Mormons, non-Trinitarians, members of New Age-y not really Christian sects, or Unitarians.

(Well of course also Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, atheists, etc. too but that kind of goes without saying.)

She's not a catholic but I also don't care so it'll be up to my husband, who will be Jewish.

I have to ask... engaged to a Jew currently, or do you have a thing for men of the Tribe?

Kind of a running gag, I guess?

No. I'd be fine with a trustworthy, christ-loving female baptizing my children, but Hillary doesn't meet that category. I'm sorry, but she is far from honest, and someone who goes around advocating for partial birth abortion and repeal of the hyde amendment is not a Christian.

No, because she'd just as soon abort them, partially born or otherwise.  And babies shouldn't be baptized anyway except for a symbolic measure during a dedication ceremony.
