@Ms_Logical questioned:

"Why are you wearing black instead of white? Or is it a Illuminati group?"

@IamTomTsibinki replied:

"Getting baptised in a swimming pool is the same as taking a shower."

@TheGeopol responded:

"Baptized into what, a cult? Who wears black to a baptism worse a chlorine bath tub baptism. Your faves like playing games."

@SihleTuta commented:

"There is so much ignorance about the practice of baptism here, people saying things like “why is he being baptised in black & in a swimming pool”, these things don’t matter. The most important part is the submerging in water, no matter the location."
