"It's all turned me against organized religion and I only occasionally attend"

Sorry to hear that. One's fellowship with other believers is an integral part of maintaining one's faith. That may seem problematic what with today's agendas, but it's true. We need the support of others in our daily lives; especially those who are true to the Word.

If a church proclaims the Bible as God's inerrant word then that church should be applauded. If it insists on making that word more amenable to today's lifestyle, then that church is an abomination.

I tend to use the phrase "The Church is supposed to change people's lives, not change itself to suit people's lives" a lot when in discussions with the more liberal. Not many have been able to come back against it.

"The Church is supposed to change people's lives, not change itself to suit people's lives"

That's a well turned phrase.

Good point!

This situation makes me very sad. And angry.
