I really want to weigh in on this baptism issue, but I have a bad feeling that I’d derail the thread if I did, and a little worried that I’d get lumped in with believing the same thing as Roman Catholics, even though I very much don’t.

Well, the point of most of my comments are refuting the fact infant baptism takes away original sin based on Romans 5:12

I hope you don’t believe that absurdity...

I'm surprised that some seem to be oblivious to the fact that significant portions of the Protestant community, both currently and historically, practice infant baptism. The Reformers who gave rise to the Five Solas held to paedobaptism almost exclusively. The Protestants who practice paedobaptism do not hold to the RCC's position of baptismal regeneration.
