You were Baptized as an infant in the Catholic church....that pretty much took care of the whole Baptism requirement....and it was a lot more than 6 months earlier. All that does is get the child wet and make the parents fell good.
There are no recorded instances of infant baptism in the NT.
And the baptism is not what saves you....it's the faith in Jesus that saves you. Baptism is being obedient in following His example of being baptized.

You are correct Eagle dude. 😂 I was too young to know if my parents had me sprinkled when I was a baby, but they never asked for my opinion, in which case, I would have objected to it. 😎 I am thinking maybe we should start a club here, called ex Catholics for Christ. I think it would be a beautiful thing. Everyone else could pray, while me and Elsie could do what we do best, dream up Limericks. 😆 We got a million of them. Do you think it has a future? 🇵🇭

DARN....it took you 2015 years to set the Catholic church straight...WOW, just in time too, the end times are probably near....but with OSAS in effect now, who cares???

There are no recorded instances of infant baptism in the NT. There are no recorded instances of zillions of things in the NT...didn't you read the part where it said something to the effect that all the books written couldn't contain all the things that Christ accomplished????...well infant Baptism was one of them.
