Of course I can. I had first hand experience of people pulling aside gospel contacts on campus and using this book to poison them. Talking with contacts before and after these meetings is a very strong basis to make these claims. I had people relay first hand accounts of what took place in these talks.
If you want a fair and unbiased account, then you have to include the way this book was used, who published it, and why.
My personal opinion was that the lawsuit was a very big mistake. But the idea that this book didn't have an agenda or that it wasn't published out of jealousy is ridiculous. We had 5 brothers, intervarsity and campus crusade might have had 30 brothers and sisters. Our gospel was prevailing, reaching every corner of the campus. Their gospel was anemic and sickly, primarily composed of trying to dissuade our gospel contacts from listening or meeting with us.
