Death at baptism

Crossing the Kolobeng

From Mmegi (Botswana)

Should people continue to die in the name of religion? This question becomes pertinent following the recent tragic incident in Thamaga in which three members of a local church drowned at Kolobeng River during a baptising session.

One of the deceased was the pastor of the church, who was the first one
to drown. The two other church members drowned after they jumped into the
river to rescue the priest. But according to the police, this was not the
first fatal incident during a baptising session.

All here.
