When I was in HS, it was the FCA mafia.  When my daughter was in HS, it was Young Life.

I was in both.  Young Life at our church was pretty mild, but yeah, the FCA bullshit got old fast, and so I quit.

My favorite feature of the "Turning Point Everywhere" movement is the blatant hypocrisy.  They see it, they just don't care.  They never did.

When you realize that to these people, the First Amendment is only a weapon to be wielded against their enemies, and not an actual shield to protect speech regardless of content, it all makes sense.

These "strict Constitutionalists" actually fucking HATE the Constitution as a governing document and set of principles.  The "Constitution" is just a word they use as a talisman to allow them to do whatever they want.

High school kids these days have got better things to do, especially in the cities.  FCA, etc. were always nerds and weirdos when I was in high school, I'd imagine this group is far worse and will be mocked/bullied on social media when they start preaching about chastity and whatever else the incels are on about.

They'll give the well-off white kids a safe space to be cruel and racist.  Same old same old.

Everyone else will do other shit.

Given that we're approximately the same age, what was the FCA bullshit?  It was really a student club, faculty sponsor was a coach, so it was kind of a nothing at my HS, but most of the jocks dabbled in it.

YL was sponsored mostly out of a PCUSA church, so it was pretty milktoast, too.  It was only later that I learned it had some darkish fundagelical origins and undertones.

Attended by kids whose parents and coaches who didn’t want their jock/cheerleader kids out partying and getting somebody pregnant or getting pregnant.  They would have get-togethers at peoples houses and do prayer breakfasts on the weekends. 

But it did not deter stuff from happening, and a lot of the kids I knew that were in it were doing it simply to check off a box for college applications and scholarship money and yearbook entries. The really good jocks were spending their weekend mornings working out or practicing, not sitting around thanking Jesus over egg McMuffins.

And fuck.  Don't forget these kids are kids, and a lot of the religious set at HS are the biggest sluts and fuck boys around....they just wrap themselves up in God and act like they are better than everybody else for it.

Future Christian Athletes?  Really?  That's your question?

I'd hear these guys try to talk to us in high school to recruit to join in the early 90's.  They were the dumbest Jesus freaks imaginable.  They couldn't put together a coherent argument to justify why they needed a special organization for their religion, as opposed to creating a more inclusive group that respected all views, beliefs, etc.  We laughed at them and politely told them to fuck the hell off.
