Well in the Bible God says to as a sign that you are dedicated to him I believe. In Catholicism you are baptized as a baby. Which I don't believe is right. In Protestantism you r baptized when you are ready and believe you r ready to dedicate yourself to the Lord Almighty once you've gotten saved.
Answer:
Nowhere, in Scripture, does it tell us to have infants baptized.
Scriptural baptism requires repentance - a deep sorrow and request for forgiveness, promising to go forward following Christ's example - and this is something that requires a complete understanding of the sins or wrongs one has done. In other words, the person must be an adult:
Acts 2:38-39New King James Version (NKJV)38 Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call."
After baptism, God's Holy Spirit joins with the persons human spirit 'begetting' the individual into the God Family. However, like an embryo, the individual needs to grow on the Word of God and do God's good works as His spirit guides him/her to do. The person can falter and be forgiven again but if the person abandons the new way of life or commits the unpardonable sin, they doom themselves to the second and final death as there is no other covering for their sins but Jesus.

Different religious traditions have different practices regarding who attends a baptism. In some cases, only immediate family members and close friends of the person being baptized may attend. The purpose of their attendance is to witness the sacred ritual and show support for the person being baptized on their spiritual journey.

Will the dutch de-baptism process be rolled out to other countries?
I don't think so - the internet has made the world a smaller place and this de-baptism process can be done online. While actual baptism process can never be erased - the de-baptism process and wording certainly goes a long way in correcting this and making it know that one does not agree with the church.
