Re: Is Separating Boys and Girls a Good Idea?
As a brother who's 19- I couldn't be more grateful to be in the assembly I am in, and to have been able to go to a good camp last summer. In my assembly the guys and girls have their areas where they sit, and even the engaged couples (there are none right now) don't sit together, we think there should be some things that shouldn't be taken away from newly married couples, like getting to sit together for the first time in the assembly hall.
Also, at camp- if the preacher isn't making hookey jokes about guys and girls getting together, and if you separate the guys and girls, but don't make a federal case of it, they just know that's the way it's going to be, you don't have minds wandering. The brothers have a good time together, the sisters have a good time together, and you're at camp to get something from GOD and have NO distractions. You can get a wife at socials back home, where the focus is NOT supposed to be a week away from home, work, the distractions of modern living, and you can focus on service, fellowship and activities (which is what camp is supposed to be).
Why don't we raise the courting age to 20? Does anyone want to live holy anymore?
