To say that Baptists ONLY baptize believers is patently untrue, for it is virtually impossible to infallibly know who has true faith. In fact, the honest Baptist will admit that now everyone who is baptized is saved. This is one of the main reasons for the change in name from "Believers Baptism" to "Credo Baptism". For the latter better expresses the reality of the situation; Baptists baptize someone on the basis of a "credo", a PROFESSION of faith vs. actually possessing faith.
