    That honestly seems like the best way to write conditionalBaptize but I still hate it. Probably because IRL you'd just rewrite baptism instead of retrofitting the function with a clever use of id.

      Baptism is such a weird thing. It's ritualized cleansing turned into one and done

      You can get baptized as many times as you like, it doesn't stack

        The LDS (Mormons) actually do repeat it, in a sense. Their weekly sacrament is a renewal of their baptismal blessings

              This is probably an ok use for a GADT. Something like:

              {-# LANGUAGE DataKinds      #-}
              {-# LANGUAGE GADTs          #-}
              {-# LANGUAGE KindSignatures #-}
              
              data Bap = Baptized | Unbaptized
              
              data Person :: Bap -> * where
                 Baptize :: Person Unbaptized -> Person Baptized
                 NewPerson :: Person Unbaptized
              
              conditionalBaptize :: Person a -> Person Baptized
              conditionalBaptize p =
                  case p of NewPerson -> Baptize p
                            Baptize _ -> p
              
              main = return ()

                        I imagine if baptisms stacked, you could pile on a gazillion of them like ablative armor against incoming sin.

                          Probably the reason some other sects call double-dipping a sin, so as to not be like those Mormons.

                                Per the actual wiki, some denominations seem to think it's a sin or heresy to do someone more than once. Which seems like what the nullification in the baptize function is supposed to capture.

                                      Conceptual numeracy is a human thing. The universe absolutely cares about quantifiable physical properties which we represent as numbers.

                                        There's an old joke about functional programming separating Church from state.

                                          no no. they need to switch to Flouroantimonic acid instead of just flowing water.
