Russell Crowe Plans His Own Baptism

Children will really change a man won't they? At 43, Russell Crowe has decided it is time to get baptised. After baptising his children, Russell wants to do the same. The Gladiator star will stage a private family ceremony in the chapel he built on his Nana Glen estate near Coffs Harbour in New South Wales, Australia at the end of the year

"My mum and dad decided to let my brother and me make our own decisions about God when we got to the right age.
"I started thinking recently, `If I believe it is important to baptise my kids, why not me?'" Crowe built the chapel for his 2003 wedding to Danielle Spencer. He adds, "It is consecrated and everything... Charlie was baptised there and when Tennyson gets baptised there, I will too."

What a shame, his parents allowed him to make up his own mind but he denies his children the same right. Religion=social control in the guise of spirituality.

I agree !I think the right thing to do is to choose your religion when you are an adult!

You should all keep your judgemental, negative comments to yourselves - his baptism is between him and God - you would be better to pray for him than judge him
