But it seems like you're the one who's making baptism into something required.

None of the sacraments are "required" for salvation. But I doubt a saved person would not partake of them because we're told to do so.

I support baptizing infants because it doesn't have anything to do with a requirement for salvation. It has to do with acknowledging the infant as a child of God, born into a covenant family and congregation.

If someone is not baptized, do you think they can be among the saved?

Why are they baptized when Scripture clearly states that one MUST believe in order to be baptized?
