Paul told the Galatians that he was afraid for them, since they had begun to celebrate days and weeks and months and years -- all a clear reference to bona fide Christians going backwards into Judaism.
Many have left the LC's only to have been enamored by those who wrongly use the OT to capture God's children by another gospel, rather than the unique way of faith patterned by the NT apostles.

Ohio,
Do you think shutting Cahn down will insure that precious brothers and sisters will not get defrauded of their love for God? I also know some who are overly fascinated with all kinds of things. Will shutting down the voices fix that? Who do you shut down next? Who decides?
Shutting down the LC might fix a lot of things for a lot of people we love and care about. One thing we should take away from leaving that toxic environment is that we can't manage what other people hear, see, believe, trust, hope, ... on and on.
We speak the truth and trust the hearing of others to God. Pray for the people you love. That's the best we can do and that's not a bad solution. We can't manufacture an environment where the faith of men will not be challenged. We can't regulate what men hear. We've been there.
Who among us has the authority or wisdom to control what people hear and don't hear? We have a God who is able to take care of his children.
