As far as Jehovah's Witnesses are concerned, our baptism takes place in the same manner as Jesus' baptism exemplified. After a person has reached an age where they can understand spiritual things, including ther personal relationship with God (some refer to this as the age of accountability), they have gained a reasonable knowledge of the scriptures, and the have brought their lives into harmony with God's requirements as outlined in the scriptures, they can be baptised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. The baptism is a simple ceremony as was in the case of Jesus. Like Jesus, we are immersed completely in water momentarily, and raised back up out of the water. This symbolizes our dying as to our former course of life, and now we are raised back up, ready to do God's will. I cannot speak for the Catholic method or symbolism of baptism, it would be good for a Catholic to explain theirs.

Jehovah's Witnesses typically answer baptism questions affirmatively, demonstrating their understanding and commitment to their faith. Candidates are asked if they recognize Jehovah as the only true God, if they believe in Jesus Christ as their Savior, and if they take a stand against sin and false teachings. They also confirm their dedication to sharing the good news of God's Kingdom and living by the teachings found in the Bible. These affirmations reflect their readiness for baptism as a public declaration of their faith.
