I have found a wonderful book that might provide young people entering college with responses. What they most need is the courage to stand up for what they believe, because all the unbelievers have found a way to use a persons' self-doubt against them. They take advantage of the fact that the young person, wanting to seem open to new experiences, and willing to consider all sides fair, are usually ill-prepared with information about their own faith.

I know this, because it is what happened to me. I was always with the Catholic Student Center, but was unable to answer with a positive stance the aspersions cast my way by 'non-religious' people.

Oh, and anyeone going to college : avoid a group called The Great Commission. They are a CULT, not a group interested in spreading the Word of God. They may or may not have changed their name, but if they require that you cut off all ties to your family and new friends, and that you adhere to ONLY their philosophy of Christianity, then they are a group to be shunned.
