There is no way on earth that a child born to a Romanian hooker and her underworld sugar daddy is going to be raised with any sort of values that approximate those of Christianity.

This baby’s underworld father has a son in his 20s who was best friends with murdered cocaine dealer Mario Camilleri Junior, and who uploaded on Facebook photographs of himself mourning near the drug-dealer’s framed photograph on his grave – so it gives you some idea of the values he imparts to his children.

It’s the parents who choose it. And that’s just the point here. If you’re living that kind of life, you’re not even Christian let alone Roman Catholic, so why bother baptising your child at all.

That’s why the collection of characters at the font makes the situation so ridiculous, and that’s why the priest shouldn’t baptise a child who isn’t going to be brought up with good values anyway.

It’s hypocrisy all round, like refusing a Roman Catholic funeral to a man who asked to be taken off a life-support machine while giving a Roman Catholic funeral to Mafia bosses who have ordered the deaths of many.

If I were a stripper living with a man old enough to be my father, who is married to somebody else, for money while dancing nude at night for ‘tips’, I certainly wouldn’t be crowding at the font any time soon.

I think something like that should go without saying.

Oh. So “they” meant TVM and not Din l-Art Helwa. My mistake?

Looks like he feels safe coming out from the underworld now.

With this lot at the helm he is amongst friends.

For heaven’s sake, it wasn’t Din L-Art Helwa which called it ‘far’, but the news writer on TVM.

Now, Din l-Art Helwa applied the same rule; and from now on lighthouse is far.
