What a selfish see you next... that she’d guilt you and your wife to go against what the two of you agreed upon regarding raising your kids.
I mean *absolutely* no disrespect, but tell the bitch to get bent.
It’s shite like this that makes me and a lot of us atheist/agnostic and not follow organized religion... because of the bullshite beliefs and mandates.
Thing is? I’m not even a little bit surprised.

If one can't just live their life doing right by others and get into heaven, then that place isn't nearly as great as folks make it out to be.
It says in the book that all we have to do is BELIEVE.
Works gets you nothing. I do know this, belief will cause one to improve their works.
It's dis-ingenious to believe somebody's works on earth would be some determining factor as to how great a place called heaven may be.

Doesn’t it take a while to get baptized? I’m not catholic so I don’t know but I thought you had to go through some steps first.
Besides that, at 4 and 5 it may be very odd to them to suddenly jump into something like that.

Get them baptized. End of story. You’ll regret when she dies and you decided not to

mandates
I think you guys don't like to follow rules you don't like.
I don't like the pick and choose way of dealing with rules (and laws).
I see value in the way man lives with their fellow man in order for us to have a civil society in all the "mandates" within the bible, in particularly the New Testament.
I have connected nearly every useful law to Christian religion "mandates" in the past.
Believe in ghosts or not, one should deal with grandma the same.

What harm would baptising the kids do? It will literally have no impact on their earthly lives. They can join another religion, never practice, or do whatever the hell they want later. Make your grandmother happy in her dying days.

But if I don't believe or am just indifferent to the idea of Heaven/God but I do great things and dedicate my life to helping others, I don't go to Heaven?
Does that sound like a great place to you?

I’ll be honeat, I know she’s dying but it’s not great to use that to leverage people.
Your kids are your kids. You have to make your choices for them not anyone else.
However, I dont Think I understand your current situation. Is your family prwxticing Catholicism? If so, might as well get em baptized. It really doesn’t stop you from converting to any other faith later.
My mother converted, my wife converted and my cousin converted.

I would just tell her the truth, that it isn't something you want to do as parents. She can either accept it or be angry, I doubt she will be angry. She has bigger worries.
Mine knows I won't take any shite about decisions I have made, so she complains to my parents. They just tell her he is as hard headed as you are, he gets that from you.

Baptizing them now doesn't prevent them independently making a decision later in life on what religious route they would like to take
Baptizing now does however unwillingly affiliate them with an organized religion that they may or may not choose to want to be affiliated with later in life.

It will also be a nice memory with pics and a family gathering that the grandparent will enjoy.
I can't imagine others involved would feel anything but awkward or uncomfortable
Including the props I mean kids

Hear
Believe
Repent
Confess
5 and 4 year olds are not capable of this. They should not get baptized now. And your grandmothers request has nothing to do with it.

I understand your point about your children, but even if you baptize them in the Catholic faith, they will still make their own decision.
They are young and you are raising independent people.
You won't be pounding it into them.
She's dying.
Why not have a small ceremony, a family event, and let her have some smiles?

OP Why didn't you baptize your kids? "I want them to make a decision on their own one day" is bullshite. You can baptize them and they could choose later in life to not be a devout Catholic such as yourself. At least, start them on the path
So what your saying is to make their decision for them. Teach them ways, behaviors and a certain groups beliefs then one day just say ok.... now your allowed to decide if all of that was what you wanted?
Kinda like wiping your arse before you shite if you ask me.
