Baptism, by immersion or by sprinkling?

• The word baptism comes from the Greek  » Baptizo « : To plunge, immerse, submerge (of a sunken ship).
• It was a term that was used when a ship was drowning or when something or someone was being thrown into water, very often rivers.
• To speak of baptism by immersion is to say « immersion by immersion » (this is repetition).
• Similarly, speaking of baptism by sprinkling is equivalent to saying « immersion by sprinkling » (which is absurd).
