At 13 or 14, you were presumed to be an adult and expected to act like it. You probably dropped out of school and started working on the family farm. Maybe the family business or an apprentice in some trade. If a girl, you were formally getting ready to be a wife and mother. If you were a boy and really lucky, they sent you off to a University. A typical Harvard "freshman" was about that age in 1800.
The stage of life that we call "adolescence" is a very recent invention. It is a period when you are physically an adult, but not expected to assume adult responsibilities. A hundred years ago, it didn't exist.
Now it lasts until you are 40. Apparently.
You really should stop bearing false witness against your neighbor.True Christians are "confirmed" by God with the gift of the Holy Spirit at baptism. Catholics do worship their organization
I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Gospel has been restored to it's proper ways of doctrine, commandments and ordinances. Baptism before the age of accountability (8 years of age) is unnecessary because baptism is for one purpose only, for remission of sins after one repents. Up until the age of 8 or accountability, a child cannot sin. They do not understand sin or the consequences eternally of sin. You are sticking your finger in the Lord's eyes when you baptize too early.i am asking, as this often happens in this time of year
