Why is it that Islam has managed to hold onto its traditions better than Christianity has? Is Islam a stronger religion?
I hardly think that mixed or separate gender seating arrangements are indicative of a religion's ability to maintain it's hallowed traditions.
In Lutheranism there is a concept known as adiaphora, Greek for "indifferent things", it refers various things which are neither commanded nor forbidden. Whether or not men and women are mixed or separated would, definitely, fall under this category. It's simply a non-issue. Similar to how Western churches use pews, whereas Eastern churches do not, the presence or absence of a pew would be, at least from a Lutheran view point, excessively trivial.
