Does it mean all the contents in KJV Bible is also accepted by Catholics?
Most of what is in the KJV is acceptable to Catholics except for a few verses that were modified by Martin Luther so as to agree with his personal theology. However, Catholics consider the KJV to be incomplete as it does not include the deuterocanonical books of the Old Testament which are found in the Catholic Bible.

What does you confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins mean?
It means that you agree that a single baptism is enough for the forgiveness of your sins before that time, no matter what your mental state may be (an infant cannot be in a state of repentance, for example). Some Protestants do not agree with this doctrine, holding that baptism is only a symbol of repentance and faith.
What are the three elements of confirmation that actually confer the sacrament?
There are actually four things. They are matter, form, minister and the intent of the recipientof the sacrament.Form - This is the words or specific verbal formula required for the sacrament. These words must be spoken correctly and often at the correct time in relation to the matter for the sacrament to be valid. If we use baptism as an example, the form of baptism is, "I baptize you in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." In conjunction with these words the matter, that is water, must be poured on the recipient.Matter - This is the object used to conduct the sacrament. The correct matter must be used for the sacrament to be valid. Using our example, water is the matter of Baptism.Minister - each sacrament can only be preformed by a specific person, usually an ordained cleric, either a priest or bishop who has been ordained and given the spiritual power and authority for that purpose. Baptism, as our example, is the one sacrament whose minister can be absolutely anyone in an emergency although usually it is preformed by a priest. Unless the minister purposely declares their intent to themselves that they mean not to confer the sacrament, the sacrament is valid, even if the minister is not fully educated in the meaning of what he is doing, since his/her intent is supplied by the Church to which the sacraments belong.Intent of the recipient - the intent of the recipient must be open in such a way that there is no impediment to receiving the sacrament. Someone who enters a sacrament but known to them in their heart does not wish to receive it or preform it makes it invalid. For instance, if when being baptized you are either under duress or you simply do not wish to be baptized than the sacrament is impeded. As well, sometime the state of the soul impedes the validity, as in sacraments that can only ever be received once. Undergoing a second time, as in the case of baptism, is invalid. The above impediments, if done maliciously, are also sacrileges. The recipient must also be able to receive the sacrament for it to be valid; a priest for instance cannot marry, a long dead person cannot be baptized, etc. Receiving a sacrament while not in the state of grace, i.e. while in mortal sin, does not impede a sacrament, for sacraments are efficacious on the merits of Christ, not your own. However, to receive a sacrament while in sin - except for Baptism or Confession which are in place to absolve sin - is a sacrilege and the effects and special graces of the sacrament will not be activated until the soul is reconciled with God.
What did Malcolm X and Martin Luther King agree on?

Is Confirmation just a repeat of Baptism?
No. Some church denominations (eg Baptists) only baptise as adults when the promises made at baptism can be understood. However, some denominations (like Roman Catholics, Methodists and Anglicans) practice infant baptism as well as adult baptism. Therefore, when an infant is baptised, he or she cannot really understand the significance of the promises made to follow Christ and reject evil. Therefore godparents - responsible adults who are not the child's biological parents - agree to make these promises on the child's behalf and also agree to ensure that the child grows up knowing and understanding the Christian faith. There will come a time when the child grows up and may wish to affirm (or confirm) these promises making them for himself rather than someone else do it for him. This is known as confirmation. Therefore at confimation the candidate makes the promises for himself - which is the big difference between baptism and confirmation.
