How easy should it be for a Baptist church to accept a new member.

Not as long it is a church of like faith and practice. Their membership is transferred and are now under the watchcare of that church.

and how close does that "faith & practice" have to be"
Would a KJO church accept a member from a non- KJO? Other "minor" doctrines?

We are not KJO so that would not be an issue. It would depend on whether the text used would cause interpretional divisions or conflicts. We interpret the scripture on the basis of kingdom theology and any requesting membership would be told before hand.

I was only using KJO as one example -- But lets turn that around - if you had a candidate for membership and they insisted that only the KJV be used - that ALL other versions are perverted - would you want that person to be a member of our local church.
The point I'm getting at is that to one a minor doctrine could be a major doctrine to another.
