It is not uncommon for church buildings in major cities to rent out their space to other religious groups, usually ones too small to have their own building. Sometimes the groups that churches rent to are in direct opposition to some of their core beliefs. The fact that the group meets in the Lutheran Church may mean nothing more than the church is willing to take their money. While this is definitely suspicious, it may not mean much.
Yes, but how could any church in good conscience profit by renting its building to ACTUAL SATANISTS? They were given the money for that building by God-fearing parishioners, who I'm SURE are not okay with their temple being defiled.
If you are a Christian your mind revolts at the very idea of this, nevermind what else is going on. But I hear you about the misleading nature of the OP. It doesn't reflect the reality, although the reality is, to me at least, hellish.
Depends on what kind of "Lutherans" they are. One sect has women and queers preaching to the flock. The other is hard-lined except for the fact they both teach from other books in addition to the bible. Which, is your first sign.

So true. Agree on all three.
