That is NOT true....I'm not sure why people believe that. Baptism is a profession of faith by a person to God and their peers. Its suposed to be done when someone is old enough to choose for themselves, NOT to save them from hell.

People that never had the chance to know who/what God is go to heaven! I don't have the exact scripture, but will find it when I get home. Its the same as say, someone living in a desolate place where they've never been approached by missionaries or whatever. I've read it personally.
