The question is easily answered. They know if you go with the intention of respecting the place, the people you mingle with and yourself, there is no sin. You have been blessed with strength and a clean mind to meet your friends with joy and happiness.
It has been stated that dancers and drunkards cling together. This is not necessarily true, because not many drunkards have a passion for dancing. They are not allowed to mingle with respectable people. Without being trained properly, it is difficult for one to glide over a waxed ball room floor even when sober.
Proper Training
Which bring joy, happiness, wealth, long life and a resting place in the heaven above?
I will not picture to you the history of our great men and leaders who have climbed to the top rung of the ladder of life, from the proper training, and the great battles that have been won for God and man, but a few needed points of our home life and ourselves, because we have not this great power.
First, we as a race do not know how to serve God and be a valued soldier and defend our race, because we have not had the proper training.
We do not respect our country, towns, churches, societies, homes, wives or husbands and our children do not respect us, schools or teachers. Because a large majority of the race have not had the proper training.
This is a sad and serious question that I picture to you, and without being remedied it will drag down the moral standard of Israel and blot her out forever.
But with the powerful brain cultivated and that strong mind properly trained she will be as brave as David of old, as powerful as a giant and a God-fearing citizen.
What power has proper training? It has the power of the professional boxer who sidesteps many death blows, which if landed, would have blotted out his life forever, but he played with his antagonist because he feared him not. The great power of training was at his command.
