Unsanctioned

Elbowing in:

A man pretending to be a priest was arrested by police as he prepared to baptize a baby in a small town in the north of Portugal.

How does one pretend to be a priest? That's like pretending to be a ditch-digger; either he can dig a ditch or he can't. There are no complex skills involved here. He's dunking a baby in water and pretending to talk to an invisible man; he's not performing brain surgery or building a rocket.

The baby was later baptized by a real priest...

Ah, yes: a Real Priest™. That would be someone who has been sanctioned by the Pope® to talk to $God©.
