Russell Brand is getting Baptised Catholic!

[diaduit]

Seems he is going to do it

According to YouTube, and a quick google search, he already underwent baptism in the Thames.

I thought a river baptism was rather un-Catholic myself.  But he prays the Rosary?  An odd blend he's got going on, hopefully he reaches the correct destination eventually

He was playing with tarot cards recently too. He's a lost soul looking for answers. Hopefully he answers the call of grace, but he's far from a Catholic convert at this point

Never underestimate the Rosary

To be fair tarot cards are not inherently evil. They are from an old European card game. What he was doing with them I dunno though.

Want to be careful too as some of them do the whole "We" baptize you rather than "I" baptize you, and the former being invalid.

Nevertheless, it's still a positive development and if he stick with the Rosary, hopefully he can make it the rest of the way.

God Bless

To be even fairer, knowing what we know, you just would not ever go near them, no matter how 'benign' they are presented to us because we know better and the devil is very cunning with a superior intellect than us.

And you can also get a different deck and pretend to be a 15th century Venetian patrician.

Who's fooling who then? We know they're dangerous, so we should just stay right away from such things IMO. Why pretend to be a 15th century Venetian patrician into weirdo and very questionable stuff anyway?

Similar thing happens with stuff like 'palm reading' which is very questionable and often presented as harmless fun... but it's divination very much open to demonic oppression IMO. 

God Bless

People use tea leaves to try to divine the future, should one avoid tea?

Well that's a cup of tea, what's pretending to be some crazy 15th century venetian patrician got to do with anything? lol why even go there? 

Furthermore, the correct analogy would be playing cards, but 'tarot' is a very specific 'type' which involves divination, so we should just stay right away from that 'type' of cards IMO, I would just not go near anything with such a name attached to it.

God Bless
