Another Confirmation Thread

Thanks for the explanation everyone. Sounded weird at first but then I used to belong to a religion that baptises dead people so I can't really talk about weird religious practices.  :P Makes sense now, thanks!

What religion was that, I have never heard of that belief. 

 

 

 

I started a novena for my Confirmation yesterday but I can pray the EWTN one too :) :amen:

Mormon. They don't baptize the dead body. People submit names to the temple of non mormons and a living person is baptized in proxy for the deceased. Technically you are only supposed to submit the names of your own ancestors but there are a lot of cases where that rule is broken. It's why mormons do so much genealogy work, they are looking for their ancestors to baptize.
