That priest can count himself lucky he still has any teeth in his mouth.
Outraged relatives snatch baby from priest after he SLAPS the child because it won’t stop crying during baptism
The French clergyman hit the baby with his left hand after losing his temper
His relatives looked shocked and had to wrestle the child from the priest's grip
The footage of the bizarre baptism was captured in a French-speaking church

The clergyman hit the child in the face with his left hand after he lost his temper when the child would not stop crying during the ceremony.
The outraged man and woman watching on, who appear to be his parents, react in shock and step in to snatch their baby back.
It is not known when the footage was filmed but it was captured in a church where the ceremony was conducted in French.

Canada is experiencing a huge wave of secularization. This is happening very rapidly.

Well, here is a start. Some of them sound very interesting.
Do any Universities offer study about (the history of) Atheism?
