It seems that the modern church needs pruning from heretical teachings and secularism now more then ever. Under what circumstances does the holy Spirit move the church triumphant to institute the inquisition?

So my husband I and were looking for a good church. We found this particular church that we really liked. But then we made the mistake of telling some of our family about it.
Next thing we know, a certain person we don't really like showed up there. He started rubbing elbows with the deacons and pastors, and getting himself in the center of things. We weren't really happy about this because we know how he is. He is the kind of person who goes to church on Sunday morning then cusses and argues when he goes home. So of course, next thing you know, there was tension between us and him.
Then he started telling lies about me and my husband, and making us look bad to the church. And of course he was their new best friend, so they believed him. I tried to speak with the pastor but he acted like I was being dramatic.
So last time we were there, people were avoiding us and looking at us dirty. We even got married there, and no church members came. So we stopped going. What would you do?

Some people are afraid to say what they believe is correct or right. Very sad indeed!

Why do I believe as I do?
What do I base my belief system upon?
Is that basis reasonable?
Why don't I believe something else?

I've always had a side interest in the Occult. Any tips on how to get into. I do own a deck of tarot card, but hardly ever use them. I don't really know how. Any tips or suggestion would be helpful

and are there Male Wiccans or do they have a different name?

Yet, they demand others submit to them! i.e. a gf friend or spouse to remain faithful to them, to do things that please them... very hypocritical of them.

This question has been asked many times, and responses have come in varying degrees of quality. This is specifically to those who hold Christians to be arrogant for holding to their belief as true to the exclusion of all other religious viewpoints.

I'm curious to know what responses you might have against this short clip by Dr. William Lane Craig on this matter? Link of 1.28 MB .mp3 is below:

Yesterday, through the power of Jesus Christ my lord, I covered myself in blue body paint and intricate designs that hold magical powers and, through the lord's love, levitated a 2 ton bus and threw it through a brick wall!
SEE! The possibilities are endless when you accept the lord. I have heard similiar stories from my fellow christians also...Isn't his love amazing?

All ideas, religious and non religious should have the right to be discussed, debated, presented in the public square. May the most convincing worldview win!

sry but i dont read the Bible a whole lot, im trying to understand my religion more...

They do not believe in the historical reliability of the Bible or trust what it says about Jesus nor what Jesus said about himself. The Jesus of the Bible is a fairy tale, a myth. Who do they go to Church and worship? Why do they go to church at all? Is it because they follow a man made-up religion only to try and make people feel good? They are a sad bunch!

and they never had sex with the opposite sex, would they still be considered virgins?

I would think not, because this would be perverted sex that God would find abominable.

They cant all be correct. Can you prove that your belief is any more legitimate than someone else's?
