I am a reader not a debater; I joined this net to learn a little
bit about other religions.  Here and there tidbits come through.
In the meantime, I am entertained by the debates.

My enquiry now is prompted by a small statement I read in an
article a little while back.  Someone stated that Jews practiced
baptism by immersion.  I was not aware of this before.  I would
like to know when a person is baptised and by what authority and
for what purpose.  I know that most Christian religions baptize by
the authority of the Holy Trinity.

Thanks in advance for any help.
