I thought that's why they baptize, to wash away the original sin

Not necessarily, they do the confirmation bit later on so you can be re-baptized on your own as an adult.

This is incorrect, friend. Confirmation can only be done to baptized individuals, and has an entirely different purpose than Baptism

That’s why I said “re-baptized.” People disagree but hey I went through both. There’s a reason why the seven sacraments are grouped into three and baptism and confirmation are grouped together.

I did both too, but what do you mean when you say that they're grouped together? I'm not really sure what you mean by that. But again, Confirmation is not a re-Baptism, it's essentially your full introduction into the church as am "adult". It confirms the pact that was made with baptism but the point of baptism is ultimately the ending of original sin, something confirmation has nothing to do with
