Porter Norman · Answer 1

Answer:The youth group between the age of 18 to 25

Explanation:

This is an age where people are starting to figure out who they want to real be in the society and they want to find their own way without being influenced by any one or any rules and restrictions.

They wants to finally experience their freedom away from home, find their own place to live, start dating and for some start to finally experience their sexuality.

When religion is introduced it will seem to them that it is mostly working against all these adventures and maybe it is too restrictive.

They are most likely to rebel and not want to be part of such institution that may seem to take away the freedom.
