If my memory is correct the Pastor made a very bad decision that nearly resulted in the group losing it’s club status on campus although I thought they might be going to be banned from campus at the time. I was not attending group meetings at this time but heard about it from a third party. I wrote this article on my opinion of banning UBF from campuses at that time. I am tempted to say my views on marriage by faith were naive then based on my writing but I also wrote an article refuting it and I think I simply did not put as much nuance as I should have and should have included the word “fraud,” in describing marriage by faith. At the time I remember telling someone they should openly put on their recruitment literature and websites, “we do arranged marriages and do not allow dating if you join our group,” and then I would be OK with what they were doing provided they give that and certain other information up front. I do not know what part 2 was going to be.
The article is below. I wrote it in 2015 and edited it in 2018 February
