For those supporting the PC view, do you have any historic precedent in the church to back up your position? Just wondering if this has been considered at all . . . thanks.
Yes! Please take a look at these links, for instance:
A Catena of Quotations from the Church Fathers
THE HISTORY OF PAEDOCOMMUNION: FROM THE EARLY CHURCH UNTIL 1500
Cyprian and Augustine are among some of the more famous names among those believing in paedocommunion in the early church.
But have there been any confessional (or creedal) affirmations of the practice in the Church? In light of the key role we all agree creeds and confessions play in the doctrine of the Church as a whole, I think that question is very relevant and telling to the issue at hand.
