 Dear Anthony,
 
 In the early Church there was no new testiment, so everything there was in
 addition to the written word of God that they had then. The early Church to
 stands against things and position on things as is recorded in the New
 Testiment. As a Pastor and one that God will hold accountable for the
 Churches He has put us over as Pastors. God gave us the authority to protect
 His sheep, even against threats that didn't exist during their period of
 time. We can even preach against any thing that is contrary to sound
 doctrine, 1 Tim. 1:10.  Its not legalism, this is a spiritual warfare and
the
 things that we take a stand against are things that threaten us spiritually.
 The spiritual side of this life is bigger than the natural side. I don't
 think that those that take a stand against some of the things that you are
 mentioned are fanatical, I think the ones that don't take a stand against
 those things are carnal and lascivious, and need to once again let the Holy
 Ghost sanctify there minds. We should never get up set because someone has
 enough conviction to preach against worldliness, and if we do that should
 tell us something about our spiritually. That is my soapbox.
