Good point. I shall use this next time someone starts on about the evils of atheism: &quot;Hitler, Stalin etc etc&quot;.

[blockquote]It could be argued that, by counting everyone who undergoes a Catholic baptism, as a Catholic for life, they are denying the right to change religion. I&#039;m thinking about writing to the Diocese of Motherwell regardless to see if they will cross me off the baptismal register.[/blockquote]

I think you have a good point, and now would seem the best time to pursue this.  If they won&#039;t strike you off the register as an act of de-baptism could you get them to excommunicate you?  Perhaps we should all go up to Motherwell and have a sit-in until they agree to take you off the roll?
