BTW SD, and I know this may seem heartless in our PC culture of today, but unlike MANY of the Calvinists I don't know whether every baptized baby is saved. And, quite frankly, neither does anyone else.

Baptism is Christian initiation. It is required for salvation. But that doesn't mean that everyone who has ever been baptised is "saved." It merely provides the beginning. We must still "walk in the light."

No it's not. You are saved and then baptized. See Acts.
