I usually got the end conversation where the bible study led to a cheap date evolving into a one night stand of intimacy. I heard and witnesses a promised of a trip to a study, become a pursuit of lust upon unsuspecting females trusting/believing in only being given a ride to the function/s and knowing of no other sort of compensation/obligation other then gas money being agreed upon.
unfortunately i pointed this out to my wife((my girlfriend at the time)) and believe it or not, she keep an eye on me. ;D so i attended my wife's church at her schedule, did not show any sort of over whelming affection towards her. Did this for ONE year, and man was this a trial. ;D
This past year, i have seen several of my pals daughters being picked up by some young gents taking them to a study, yea rite. I would take it upon myself to questioned them in front of their parents and ask what topics they studied or what books, and i would get this simpleton blow off answer "oh we studied so and so" or "We read so and so" i would ask what did you get from it or learned, they would reply " nothing much" or "i don't remember i was feeling sleepy/sick/tired/sleepy". I would go into some precaution the ladies might want to always be aware of. To my surprise they would agree and speak of certain instances where this did and has happened to them. But as expected they defend the integrity of the gent picking them up and then they would remember a chore or certain something they needed to do and excuse themselves. ;) Out of all 3 ladies, who were being picked up for study, none of them are being picked up now,by the same gents who picked them up back then nor do they mentioned him when asked. And all 3 of the ladies do not attend anymore studies, stating those studies never did them any good or something along that line. My heart goes out to them.
I guess anything goes for a playing field in courtship these days. But what i find disturbing is an abuse in trust to a suppose front of a bible studied. Was there an overstep by the gents preying on the innocence and ignorance of the girls who in all hopes, have laid their trust in learning and seeking God, maybe even obtaining clearer answers to questions of life and these gentlemen of the night intercept them for satisfying their own primeval demons of lust.

Very interesting stuff, Rodger...
Reminds me of the Bible Camp I went to a few times through my old chruch when I was a young teen. The guys would spend the first 4 out of 5 days flirting with the girls, trying to hook-up with them, and then on the last day we would all have bible study around a camp fire and the guys would all repent [some even cried] and rededicate themselves to God.
THE SAME GUYS EVERY YEAR! :o Something aint right here

Rodger sounds as if we went to the same church, then again most of the money churches are like that.
I told a couple of my friends what went on at church, I am not sure if they believed this or not.
It is all true and then some in my old church.

Don't get upset with me but, i had two very good reasons to attend my Methodist Church in Belize.
1. The best looking and nicest Girls were all going to church on Sunday.
2. My friends and i knew where the wine was kept by the minister.
Looking back on that experience i did learn a lot of Bible (Old KJV) and that everybody lied about
most things they claimed to believe.
Oh; we also went to check out the Catholic Church around the corner; more Girls and more wine.
Big problem with them (The sales pitch was way too long for 12 and 13 year old boys with things to do).

Jackie Lee:
That is funny George! ;D
When I was in the pentacostal church it still amazes me at what went on there.
Years ago my dad would tell my brothers if they wanted to find a nice girl, go to church.
I will speak for my old church only, but it was more worldly than the joints and clubs... if you know what I mean.
Well I want say more but it certaintly makes me know why I had to leave.
