It's a free country, and people have a right to donate money as they see fit, in this case Chan to his alma mater. And it's still a free country, for the moment, and people can openly (or quietly) affiliate with whatever religion they want, and participate in gospel outreach.

But given their authoritative nature, and penchant for manipulation and control, so strong that anyone who publicly notices is immediately marked out and expelled, one might ask what he meant by telling the LC cadre (who he's funding) by "take Harvard"? Chan gave to Harvard, and now he wants to take. Okay, take what? Influence and relevance, as Freedom says? Or, legitimacy? Or, given the Living Stream Ministry's oft-stated hunger for "good building material", do they want the bodies and souls of young, naive, and vulnerable college students?
