So I have to make an observation here. I came here knowing that there are people who come to Bible College only to get married or meet a girl or guy. However, I never actually understood or possibly allowed myself to believe it until now. I'm betting that at least half the guys on my hall, are here with Girls as their number one priority.
Why? Why on earth would you spend 5000-6000 per SEMESTER to flirt and hopefully date a girl? Heck, there's plenty of guys who dont even care about their courses, just the girls. Bible College should not be an expensive dating service. It should be a GOD centered place where people are CALLED to be equipped for life in ministry for God, or where they are CALLED to learn about Him and grow closer.
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with people meeting at school, while they're working on their calling, and getting married. You should at Bible College because of GOD's own calling on your life. Don't get caught up in the myth that as long as you're at Bible College, you're doing God's calling. People should be at Bible College to learn more about their relationship with God.
Well, thats my rant. Feel free to throw text tomatoes and tell me i'm wrong, just back it up. I'm interested in seeing what people think.

Dude,
Love the rant! Truly one would think the main purpose of Bridal, er, I mean, BIBLE college is to study the Bible and to strengthen their relationship with God. Anything 'bridal-ly' is naturally a bonus, BUT, that should not be the focus, as you say, as we should be following the call God has place on our lives and take it seriously.
So that's what I think :)
well said!
But then you have a great girl at home, don't you? :P
