So, allow me to say it one more time, just for the record, Baptists and Anabaptists are not identical in all areas. But in the area of the rebaptism of infants (which is a denial of the confessional position of Westminster) they are no different.
Presbyterians and Papists are no different in their view of trinitarian baptism. So? Does this mean you believe in prevenient grace and a perverted soteriology? Anabaptists practice believers baptism. Confessional Baptists practice believers baptism. That is the end of the similarity. Our reasons for and the ramifications of depart from there, just as you would buck against being associated with the Papists because you both baptize infants.

All this makes me wonder what your point is.
