When my DS2 was in SCBU for nine days following his birth, one of my friends turned up at the door asking if we'd had him christened. She was evidently of that school of thought that believed a child was destined for Purgatory (or do I mean Limbo?) if he died unbaptised. As we had not had DS1 baptised and had no intention of putting the baby through it, we tactfully put her off. Said infant has just turned 42 and neither of his sons has been baptised either.
