How many times have you been Baptised? (if at all)

I was baptized a Roman Catholic but left church at age 25.

I don't like the practice of baptizing infants. In my opinion people should do it if they are old enough for the act and want it.

For this reason the Baptists who baptize teenagers are better in my opinion.

But I don't think that it makes a difference at all regarding the realm of heaven if someone is baptized or not.
 

When I was born both parents were Methodists. They desided that baptism or not should be my choice when i was old enough to understand and make my mind up. I never got dunked or whatever. As a logical adult Humanist I'm happy with that. If they HAD got me dunked or whatever it wouldn't upset me -as to me it has no meaning anyway. As an aside they sent me to "Sunday School" when I was 8 - but after a few weeks they were asked not to take me back because I kept asking "unhelpful questions." My only memory of that is being told that I'd asked a question, was given the answer from the Bible and that was that. :sneaky:

I hope not.
