In reply to the discussion: Good Grief - Pastor killed by crocodile while baptising [View all]jberryhill
(62,444 posts)38. Okay, so let me ask you a question
Yes, there are river baptisms in the US (particularly the south too), but I'm not particularly aware of crocodiles in Jamaican waters.
People who are raised somewhere know the hazards.
When you are making wreaths, do you use the small limbs of manchineel trees, or sit under them in the rain?
No, of course you don't.
Pretty sure that people who live to adulthood in areas with crocodiles are not so stupid as to have baptisms where they know there are going to be crocodiles.
