Should Catholic baptisms of infants be discouraged?

Asked by NerdyKeith (5489points) March 17th, 2016

Baptism, as a general rule places young infants into an organised religion before they are old enough to make a self informed decision regarding their faith.

It seems to me that the human thing to do, would be to allow the individual to come of legal age first; then let them make an independent choice to which religion they feel represents their faith more accurately.
