1. According to the bit of searching I just did
...McSame was raised Episcopalian but since September last year he claims to be a baptist and attends a baptist church.

Funny thing is he has evidently not been baptized in the church...which is kind of important when you belong to the BAPTISTS.

2. Further searching: he attends Northern Phoenix Baptist Church
Claims to have been a member since the 90s. Which is odd because in June 2007 he told a reporter for McClatchy that he's Episcopalian.

7. baptists baptize thier members
when they are adults, but I have never known a baptist to hold baptism at an earlier age against someone. Perhaps there is a baptist here that can clear things up for us.

8. Some non-standard Baptists believe that baptisms of infants
don't count, so they do require converts to be baptized again.
