immersion, pouring and sprinkling.

Unlike many of my colleagues, I consider all three methods valid.

Were this a normal open thread, the above statement would likely get me tarred and feathered.

But, such situations can be entertaining. Cast a cynical eye towards any wedding and imagine the Throwing of the Bride's Bouquet gone terribly wrong and there you have a good mental image of tossing the "Dunker/Sprinkler" issue into mixed company.

As to the baptism of infants, you know my position and can probably guess my replies to NYer's commentary on Scripture above. Thus, I hold my peace on that issue.
