We can't even be sure that he was talking about some early CHRISTIANS.  He
says, "what shall THEY do which are baptized for the dead."  But even if
there were some groups of Christians doing this, and even if there were
groups of Christians that felt baptism so necessary that they baptize for
dead people, this no more justifies their actions than if he was talking
about Christians circumcizing dead corpses so that they might be saved.

Peace be with you.
