Apostasies
Apostasy is defined as "having departed from the faith that one has professed." One does not have to look far to find examples of those who profess the Christian faith, yet do not believe it's basic tenets. A classic example of this was an Anglican Priest in the United Kingdom who confessed he did not believe in God.
The roots of the present age of apostasy were the idealogical takeover of established seminaries. A process that continues and has been extended to the takeover of established churches.
