Are there any bible quotes that deal specifically with what happens to a child that drowns during a Baptism?

What is your input? Is a child who drowns during baptism saved?
A pastor was baptizing a teenaged boy in a Houston river on Sunday when the boy slipped underwater and never resurfaced.

Hmm . you wonder if thats why Jesus waited until he was in his 30's before getting baptized ?

What ????
For the record , if any of you believe that God condemns a baby to hell because the baby wasn't baptized then you need help .

For the record I am not Catholic , not entirely sure if thats what you were insinuating or not ?
I can't imagine anyone teaching that a baby would go to hell , but I guess some do actually teach and believe this .
Having said that I will go one further and say that some baptize there babies to get gifts and money . For some groups the baptism is a huge deal and gifts of cash play a big role in it .
Another big push to have the baby baptized in some circles is the parents pride and vanity in some cases .
