To me this is just inconsistent. I don't know why it bothers me so much. Almost as much as a UPCI preacher watching garbage on tv when his bylaws tell him no.

But brother, I dare say you give others latitude on scriptural interpretation of other topics, whether prophesy or wine for communion etc. Why do you deny this same leniency concerning Christian initiation?
I do realize the gravity of the subject, but perhaps, then it is even more incumbent that we tread softly...
