I suspect He wasn't hoping for reprieve but to gain something from the ritual for malicious purposes. Generally baptism is a way to become part of community, to cleanse, start life anew– generally it's seen as a positive step. It's only the atmosphere of the church and the Devil's asides that led me to believe that being baptised, for him, had more unpleasant benefits.

oh, thankyou. So in a sense, you let the devil into the holy community, and he must have malicious intentions(coz hes the devil, obviously) to wreak havoc upon someone or something through this? Right?
