Baptism
The sacramental birth into a Christian life. It is viewed as an entry into the ways of the church and a devotion to God. There are three different types of baptism that are recognized by the Roman Catholic Church sacramental baptism (with water), baptism of desire (explicit or implicit desire to be part of the Church founded by Jesus Christ), and baptism of blood (martyrdom).

Baptism is seems to be a very important part of Roman Catholicism. I never knew that they were different ways to be baptized. I thought it was always with water. The other ways are very interetsing.
