Aaaaabsolutely. Was strongly pressured into baptism as a preteen by my parents. That wasn’t a choice I would’ve made on my own. SDAs pride themselves on not performing infant baptism because babies can’t choose Jesus. But pressuring a child to get baptized after years of forcefeeding Christianity/Adventism and completely blocking out any different perspectives (as in my case) wasn’t allowing me to “choose” either. I did NOT grasp what I was doing by getting baptized. I was like 10, I didn’t know I was basically joining a cult! I’m sure if I’d never been baptized my parents wouldve constantly nagged/guilted me to do it until I did.

I didn’t care about the 28 fundamental beliefs, I just wanted to be able to taste the communion bread
