Have you been baptized?

You have to be baptized to go to Heaven.  Have you been baptized?
First, you do not have to be baptized to get into Heaven.  That is completely illogical.  I do not need any religion, any sect, any human, priest or preacher to sprinkle water on me, or even dip me to prove my worthiness to God.  Yes, I have been baptized, and it was not my choice, I was baptized as an infant.  My children were baptized too, it was important to my parents, my father was an Episcopalian priest.  I knew it didn't hurt.  AND, I still stand by my understanding that you do not have to be baptized by anyone or anything to get into what you deem "heaven".

    About Janet:

    Janet DeLong, PhD, is a philosophical writer.  She'd tell you that is by default, we know it's by design.  While her perceptions are not always comfortable, they are always
    intriguing.

    Why am I answering your questions?
    I'm answering, in part, because it amuses me that my response to that question could be just as cryptic:  "Maybe I'm not."  That lets me laugh.  Truth is, words really do hold power.  How language is used to communicate, all the words, phrases, sentences, intrigue me.

    It has always been a challenge to be able to communicate my truth on every single level I can think it.  I've actually accomplished that twice, in two sentences.  The best sentence I've ever written:  "pi will id."  And the truth:  "When you finally understand yourself a particle, you wave."
