Ridiculous!

This is sad. Rather than allow the children to respond to the tug on their hearts... ...brand them like cattle. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink... I guess we drown a few in the process, that's OK if one or two drink on their own.

And with all the insecurities we had as young children and especially teens to have to deal with a separation stigma like this "within" the church was just plain and simply cruel.
