28....like Hamas....old enuff to know better...

I was baptized at 17, but asked the first time when I was 12
I was 15 when I was baptised.
Looks like rob and mulan have it....unless there are any takers.
I have a nine year old daughter and the thought of her getting baptised astounds me.

I was 17
When I look back, and think about the hall I grew up in, and how strict my parents were, I am very suprised that I was not told to get baptized earlier. I ended up moving out of the house, in fact, out of state, and got baptized because I was getting married, and in order to get married in the hall, we had to be baptized. So I did at almost 19 years of age.
As it turns out, my mother had gone through periods of serious doubt of the organization, so I suspect that is why she never pushed the issue with me to get baptized.
It was my 12th year, but I was still 11 1/2 and it was in 1959. And now I regret that I did it so young. I hadn't even entered puberty yet!
On me 12th bday! Bye golly, the greatest day of my life! It's the day I became certain that it was a ruse!
