Not to get all biblical here, but are there any examples of newborns being baptized in Scripture?
John promoted “a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.” Not sure a baby can do much repentance. Peter said, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins.” Again, how can a baby repent?
Scripture speaks twice of “households” being baptized after a family member turns and follows Christ — perhaps that’s where some get the idea that baptism isn’t about repentance, but is something family members can do for other family members?
It just seems to me that if a church practices “infant baptism,” they may invite other heresies as well.
Getting my popcorn ... ;-)
You need to finish what St. Peter said, namely " For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, whomsoever the Lord our God shall call.

This is a Non Sequitur because your premise is false. Infant baptism is biblical and has been practiced since the earliest days of the Church. St. Paul compared baptism to circumcision, which was performed on infants unless you were a convert.
