And yet, if YOU really followed what Paul did you would be taking vows, shaving heads offering Temple sacrifices.

In fact, JAMES, whom so many of you seem to grasp like a straw talked PAUL into taking some men to the Temple and “be at charges with them” (Pay for their animal sacrifices)

ACTS 21:
18 And the day following Paul went in with us unto JAMES; and all the elders were present.

Acts 21:24
Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.

Paul got a free trip to ROME out of that escapade!

For the forgiveness of sins??? Your desperation is showing, my FRiend.

You even quoted the verse that tells us why that seemed a prudent thing for Paul to do.

If you want to argue against baptism any more, just say so. But don't change the subject and pretend the circumstance in Acts 21 has any bearing on the question at hand.
