Yes, Luke 18:15 says, “Now they were bringing even infants to him.” Jesus is happy to welcome adult and child alike.

Of course, that’s totally irrelevant here in a conversation about baptism.

Never mind, frogjerk. It’s clear your faith in Roman Catholic teaching (e.g., your statement that Jesus mother was free of original sin) is all-pervasive, and that no amount of biblical reasoning will be of any effect.

Which is exactly contradictory to your argument, thank you.

Why? It most certainly is relevant because Jesus is telling us not to prevent the children from coming to him and that children "such as these belongs to the Kingdom of Heaven."

You've given exactly one fragment of a biblical argument and yet you state that "no amount of biblical reasoning will be of any effect" on me. I am still awaiting this implied (vast) amount of biblical reasoning you refer to.

Also, I am discussing this with you, am I not? You posted the original comment which caused a discussion. I am engaging you in the discussion that you now seem to not want any part of.
