They did this to us in boot camp also, but thankfully it was only once in an eight week period.

Shel...you are hitting this on the head! I used to go to the campmeetings where every, and I mean every preacher would slam women in their sermons, or rap tv's, accuse the teens of every evil under the sun. Sad to say, I sat through a lot of them and I never saw masses of people receive the Holy Ghost through all of it!
