    Default baptism for marriage

    This topic came up a handful of times in the threads, but no clear answer for me. My fiancee and I are both Christian Protestants. She has her baptism cert, i dont have one. Is this a problem? She refuses to let me get baptized just for the sake of marriage, which I support. I am having a problem finding a priest in Jakarta that would marry us (and give us a religious marriage cert) without my baptism cert. I am wondering if Bali is the same. Anyone?

    Do you remember where you were baptized? You might be able to contact that church and get a certificate from them.
    Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat drinking beer all day.

    like I answered before on another string...yeah here in the north of Bali there is one (that I know of, but probably there are more) who will perform the ceremony and issue (not give) you the certifcate...after a donation to the church ofcourse.
    don't read between the lines..i think the words are clear enough...:)
