If you are referring to Baptism, Catholics most definitely do NOT "sprinkle", they either immerse in water or POUR water three times over the head. If the water does not actually run on the head they do not consider that a baptism. I was "sprinkled" in the Methodist Church as an infant. I converted as a teenager and went to the seminary to study to be a priest. The priest who was teaching us about baptism said specifically that you could not sprinkle as the protestants do, or it wouldn't be a valid baptism. I put my hand up and asked about my Methodist baptism as an infant, only to find myself hustled over to the nearest parish later in the day and a proper baptism done!
