I also find the claim of them being a "Christian Fraternity" to be misleading. Nearly all ore maybe all NIC fraternities have Judeo-Christian (or just Jewish in some cases) religious values at their core.

At Clemson BYX is a social fraternity that operates just like all others social fraternities in conducting rush, having pledges and parties, etc. They just have more strict Christian tenets that need to be followed, i.e. no drinking unless you're of age, belief in the word of the lord, etc. They're more religious (see several chapters getting sued for expelling gay members) than other chapters founded on religious values, as far as I can tell.
Edit: Naraht beat me to it.
