Otherwise foolish heretics would claim that actual baptism is not meant but that Peter is just saying "immerse yourself in Christ by believing on him really hard."
Foolish heretics have the ability to make Scriptures say whatever they want them to say. "Baptism" means "immerse," plain and simply.

Personally, I really don't care that "immerse" was/is not used. I was wondering from the standpoint of a KJVOnly advocate how they claim the absolute error free translation allows for lack of clarity. It appears to me to be a real problem given that there is an element of marketplace efficiency with the term.
