There is a town totally surrounded by the metro OKC area called Bethany. It is the home of Bethany Nazarene College. Until the late 70s there was no store in town that sold cigarettes. They did not get a liquor store until the late 90s. Only tax dollars convinced them to allow the sale of booze and cigarettes. Folks could drive just a couple of miles and get what they wanted. When 98% of the population is in the same church they pass the laws the way they want.
Dancing in ones own home was never illegal, just public dancing. A school dance was just not going to happen. If a boy and a girl danced in public the entire town might be dammed to hell. It is crazy but no more than most other religions. I don't want this thread moved to PARF so I stop at that.
