He never said that.
True

Like Enron said, most of the time it really has nothing to do with religion. It's just a way to get some extra-curricular activities done. Great for getting into colleges.
The level of excuses for religious groups is pretty bizarre. They are only religious some times, so it doesn't count? So why get upset if you are not a member of that religion, just join anyway! :/ Good for the Muslim kids, I'm sure.

The FCA isn't even really all that religious, despite it's name and origins. Pretty much everyone I knew was in it, athlete or not, in high school. I was in it as well. It was basically just a service organization in High School - you get together, volunteer/do something charitable, every now and again have a get-together of some sort (where you just tried to hook up with girls) and maybe a church would actually host an event once or twice a year. That was about it.

Their own school refers to the club as the "Bible Club", it's religious enough that the wanted an alternative.

Which should have been a non-event, if not for Christians being assholes to atheist kids because... reasons.
