      This makes some sense for credobaptists but most Christians are paedobaptists.

      Good point. Interesting anthropologically though and certainly applies to first generation believers. I was raised credobaptist as Schwarzenau known as the Old German Baptist in the US, but my mother was Catholic.

      You can argue that paedobaptism is a stronger method of group identification than credo in the sense that I care more about whether my kids belong to the community of God than whether I do. I was raised (and still am) a Presbyterian in a conservative denomination.

      I really don’t think one is stronger than the other and I don’t really agree with re-baptism in either case.

      I agree with your disagreement. As a rule, we don't allow rebaptism unless the original baptism was basically in a cult because, as with circumcision, its not about your commitment to God. It's about your parents and community committing you to God.

      I’m curious what you would consider a cult though. In the past, my Anabaptist ancestors were considered a cult and burnt at the stake for heresy.

      Which doesn’t seem very Christlike especially compared to Dirk Williams but so it goes. I don’t intend to scapegoat the past or defend all those who’ve called themselves Christians.

      That is a good question (which means I don't have a good answer). For our purposes it's basically a group which claims the bible but does not believe in basics of propitiation. But I recognize that is very wiggly.

      Also out of curiosity did you grow up around Philly? We are popular for German anabaptists.

      No it’s probably a different church. We aren’t German anabaptists (although we are) we are The Old German Baptist Brethren Church which is direct line of Schwarzenau since moving to US in the 1700s. Mostly are in Ohio or Pennsylvania but are national.

      I don’t think they have a church in Philly. I am not a member but was raised as one and still have many family members in it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_German_Baptist_Brethren …

          We have had a few splits and there is a range of traditionalism as some still drive horse and buggy. Most do not have radios, TV or the Internet but some liberals still do. I for one am a huge Bob Dylan fan, watch Friday Night Lights, and am Tweeting atm.
