Supporting arguments
Ordination by presbyters in emergencies has historical support from the early church. Additionally, there was not a clear distinction between bishops and presbyters until well into church history. [1]
Opposing arguments
Ordination by bishops is necessary, though not sufficient, for apostolic succession to be maintained. [2]
