LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY [info]photosinensis)

With July half spent, the time has come for me to consider what I'm going to write for the registration issue of the campus newspaper back at school. I'm an opinion columnist there with a long standing record, and have become interested in issues of faith and abuse of late. Of course, this led me in the direction of this community.

So, I'm looking for information about three groups in particular: Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, Campus Crusade for Cthulhu Christ, and a group calling itself "Christians on Campus". I've heard less than positive things about all three and their association with abusive and/or Christian Reconstructionist/Dominionist theologies and groups, but alas, I'm having a hard time finding anything concrete.

The reason I target these three groups in particular is that they are generally the most visible Christian groups on campus, aside from denominational groups (Catholic Campus Ministries, the Baptist Student Association, the Wesley Foundation, and others) with which I can readily connect both a denomination and a specific supporting congregation in the area, and with which I've actually studied in the past.
