I went to a christening on Sunday. I don't believe either parent of the child are religious or follow a Christian lifestyle, yet they stood at the font swearing an oath to raise their child as a Christian.
This is their second child to be christened, and I don't believe their first has had any further connection with the church or religious beliefs.
I did find the whole thing a little pointless, my parents had me christened as a child but they are not christian and did not bring me up as a christian either.
Why do people do it?
