Of course, this whole business is silly, but there's something incoherent about the objection that these DEAD people are being baptized "AGAINST their will and without their knowledge"... sorry, but if you're dead, there is no you, so nothing can be done against your non-existent will or without your knowledge since there's no longer a you for anyone to hide anything from... Whatever wrong is being done here, it is not being done to those dead people, and that may be a distinction worth keeping in mind.
