I can assure AdrianB38 that my sister, born in hospital in 1969, was baptized that night by a nurse because she was in danger of dying. Some months later she was baptized in church, just in case the original one wasn't done correctly.cb

Clayton - thanks for that - it's good to hear of some pretty direct evidence that it did actually happen.
