No, you are forced to choose between having your character violate a pretty minor belief of your religion and whining about imagined persecution, thereby missing out on one of the best and most thought-provoking games of recent years.

It amazes me that people can actually think like this guy.

I'm not sure i'd call baptism a minor belief of Baptists.  Since said belief is what their entire branch of Christianity is based around... there branch splitting off because the whole core tennent of Batpists is that baptisms should only be performed among believers and not on infants.

So having baptists force everybody to be baptised before they enter the city is more or less literally against the very core of their religion as it's specifically why they split off.

 

Now why they should care... I don't know it's a videogame... but there it is.

Surely Christianity is based around the ten commandments and later the teachings of Jesus? Shouldn't those supercede something like Baptist teaching?

You violate the sixth commandment literally thousands of times during the game, so if you don't care about that, I see no reason to care about baptism.
