I know I have just been sitting back and watching this argument progress but this question is not the point!
The question is not whether or not some statement has been construed to mean we should water baptize... the real settling question is whether it is essential unto salvation... if it is then we must be commanded to do so or parish.
I think all this arguing over whether it is right or wrong or even whether it is a good thing or not has nothing to do with the underlying issue because at the end of the day Jesus commanding individuals to baptize with water doesn't mean that is an essential component of salvation.
