In response to Drew Hellams thread on rebaptism, Id like to start a new conversation: In terms of having honest debates, is it really fair to compare acts of rebaptism to acts of gay weddings given that there is no giant rebaptism lobby in the UMC promoting the act? Have you ever seen all the pro-rebaptism crowd meet for an annual seminar? Does the rebaptism crowd maintain blogs and social network groups? Have you ever seen a little blue stole on the necks of rebaptizers at Annual Conference? Have any rebaptism advocates ever smashed a chalice on the floor of General Conference? All that is to say, dont try comparing apples to oranges- by which I mean dont compare a small group of rogue solo actors to a giant, well-financed campaign to undermine sound doctrine and practice.
