Best Answer

Some churches that consider themselves Christians teach that a baby cannot go to Heaven without baptism, so those churches baptize babies for that reason. Other churches believe that a baby will go to Heaven if it dies, regardless of what happens on earth, so they do not practice infant baptism, but they may have a ceremony where they dedicate a new baby to the Lord. This has no bearing on the child's salvation. It is simply a way of acknowledging that children are a gift from God and should be raised in the Christian faith.
