De-Baptism

The Good News Today Is... we cannot be "de-baptized." I had never heard of this term before until I read an article in Religion Today. Apparently it isn't all that new of a concept - so I guess my head has just been in the sand. Atheists all over the world are having de-baptizing ceremonies and giving out certificates of de-baptism. They are trying to renounce a decision for baptism that they say their parents made, or they were too young to understand, and now that they've "grown up", they understand that reason is better than religion. Well, too bad for them, God will not turn His back on His children. They can turn their back on God - but He will forever be God the Father to them. Baptism was their acceptance into the family of God. It answered the question "Who's your daddy?" once and for all. They will just have to get over it!
