The issue is whether we ought baptise upon a profession of faith only. Credo say "yes" whilst Paedos say "no". The mode is irrelevent. | I agree. Even the early Anabaptists were not concerned with the mode so much. They were concerned with the subject (candidate) of baptism. They still practiced effusion (sprinkling / pouring).
I do however think that in modern times most (if not all) Credo ONLY churches are also Immersion ONLY but they are not necessarily connected.
