Baptism is generally a purification ritual using water practiced
in various religions including Christianity, Mandaeanism, and Sikhism.
Christian baptism has its origins with the Jewish ritual of mikvah.
The word baptize derives from the Greek word. (the infinitive; more
commonly indicated by the first person singular present active indicative),
which loosely means "to dip, bathe, or wash". In spite of
this range of meanings, it is a matter of religious conviction to some
groups to assert that baptism is literally equivalent to, to plunge
something entirely into the water, so that the water closes over it.
To other groups, the meaning is broad enough to encompass washing by
pouring. To yet others, it is a symbolic term meaning "identification
with" (e.g. Jesus) having no connection with earthly ritual.
