The large bulk of those who God was wanting to reach were tradition
bound. The numbers are different, but the same is true today. Reach a
christianized person with truth today, and he will normally be a
trinitarian. 

As to the origins, what can we say? Cook baptized Ewert and Ewert
baptized Cook, off the top of my head. 

Somewhere in the US there were people baptizing right, yes, but where
were they? They could have been embroiled in an internet argument that
day, or, just plain busy, as you said.

God has done much to bring us to where someone is now ministering the
the elderly and ailing Rev Billy Graham, as I hear it. We can also go
to the poorest bario and the highest penthouse. This has required
time, and faith, but is for the glory of God in the end time.
