Heh, nice, though the Baptist Churchs course over the years is saddening. What would Roger Williams (let alone Christ) say?

IMHO that would keep a lot of people from silly doctrines while preserving all vital ones. That's not to say the great mysteries shouldn't be considered, because they provide perspective on both God and man, but the latters limitations make conclusions speculative, and thus unsuitable for inviolable doctrine as such. If one comes to conclusions of which they are certain one is obviously bound to observe them as a matter of conscience, but enforcing them on others is presumptuous. In a way, that's what I think has happened with this ordination issue; people are not only free but obligated to follow their conscience (I don't ever expect God to ask me if I did what Paul or Moses told me) but not to teach it, not unless there's a firm doctrinal basis that doesn't seem possible in this case (quite the opposite).

Which can be both good and bad. It's important to distinguish between forms and substance; the former is largely irrelevant but the latter is literally sacrosanct. If I were to pick a denomination it would probably be that one, but I realize that a lot of the appeal is that it's always affirmed some doctrines I like that are almost or entirely absent from Roman Catholic and Protestant Churches, and there's the rub: Given greater familiarity with Orthodox doctrine I'm sure I could find plenty of things to confirm my non-denominationalism. "Christian" ought to be the highest label to which Christs followers can aspire, it was good enough for the Antioch church and even Paul agrees.
