Have y'all been baptized?
Ok so like a week ago I almost got baptized but didn't cuz I'm not ready yet and ik for a fact that if I do I'll stay the same anyways, the only reason why I almost got it is because my mom forced me but when we arrived at the place where we were gonna get baptized I change my mind and didn't get one.

I got baptised as a baby (like 8 months) in a Chaldean Catholic Church, Went to a catholic primary school then a orthodox high school, now go a public uni and honestly, it's really stupid cause why would you baptise a baby when they haven't committed any sin?

I got baptized as an infant so I dont know how to answer this question, but I can say with the info from my friend that she did feel closer to god after being baptized. She was never the religious person and has only been catholic for a few months but she did say it was a fun experience overall reply
