Petition regarding Greek life
 

A hearty hello to the various chatters on www.greekchat.com! As most, if not all, of you are college graduates (and it goes without saying people very much familiar with frat life), I decided to start my online social awareness campaign here. I urge everyone to keep an open mind when they consider my pleas to the communities of college fraternities and sororities.

I myself belonged to a fraternity at one point. I will not be naming it here because of privacy reasons. I went through the whole of frat life; brutal hazing, hedonistic alcoholism and sex with sorority girls I was too drunk to remember what they looked like much less their names the next morning. I thought back to my Sunday school teacher denouncing all such things to the junior youth pastors in training, but I shoved it to the back of mind. Still, this flagrant violation of my morals began to gnaw at me. I started to use marijuana in conjunction with the alcohol. Still, it did nothing. I still wore my badge proudly as I struggled through my classes, suffering from a massive hangover and barely able to focus on even the simplest of my classes, womens' studies.

Then one day in the early junior year of college, salvation came. Father Lando Beleressian, a travelling Catholic revival preacher, ste up shop on campus. His tabernacle was rainbow colored amusement park styled after the musical "Jesus Christ: Superstar". For reasons beyond me to this day, I stumbled into the tent, and left a different man. The padre told me that I could have a fufilling life by serving God. I began attending church, speaking to my parents, and finally I left my fraternity of sin behind.

So here's the deal. Every reply to this topic will be a signature for my petition. Once this topic reaches 1,000 replies, I am going to send this the College Board in hopes of them removing any references or links to colleges which do not ban both fraternities and sororities.

WTF is this about?

And the line about the circus tent... makes me think of the Simpsons episode where Bart becomes a faith healer.

OH MY GOD, I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT THANKS TO YOUR POST, TOMSODA!!!!!!!!! Your 3 paragraphs of random bullshit has made me SEE THE LIGHT! I HAVE BEEN SAVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kddani, this is exactly what it sounds like; a petition to remove all institutions of higher educations which tolerate fraternities and/or sororities from College Board's web site.

I thank you for your signature; please refrain from reply anymore than once in order to keep this accurate for the folks at College Board.

Do you not have anything better to do with your life?

You're also in the wrong place for this sorta thing. Being that all of us here at Greekchat are proud, successful members of greek life, your random post is going to be laughed at.

If you're even close to serious... i suggest you seek counseling or at least some sort of coaching on reality.

1000 "signatures" on a message board is laughable.

I am sorry that you so angry that I am suggesting an alternate viewpoint. Because of the nature of this topic, I suggest you make a different topic for discussing my viewpoint. As ancient Greece was the world's first democracy, I think it would truly be in the Greek spirit for you to actually challenge my ideas, not my mental state (which is beyond me why you would bring this up).

Thanks. :)

HUH? Sorry to seem stupid, but what is College Board?

:confused:

As this isn't a message board regarding ancient Greece, I could care less about "Greek spirit".

You're not suggesting a viewpoint. You're talking about a circus tent preacher.

Does your preacher have a website?

www.collegeboard.com is a popular site for high school students to aid them in their journey for higher education. Thank you for your signature. Thank you for your signature.

And kddani, if you don't stop disrupting my topic I will be forced to report you to the forum moderators for flaming.

Then why don't you take your nonsensical petition to www.collegeboard.com?

You go ahead and do that reporting thing. I'm a mod, too. And the mods who run this particular forum are laughing at you.

Lord, please protect us from the true believers and Kool-Air drinkers. This guy is an idiot. He claims to have been a young pastor in training yet he joined a bad fraternity (fell in with bad companions) and subquently gave in to every weakness which possessed him. Now, he seeks to blame others for his weakness and so give justifaction to his sanctimony.

Brothers and sisters, can I get an AMEN?

Hatchett Version 2.0 -- the protege.

But he doesn't have a book to sell us or a crazy website...

I hate to say Hatchett is more legitimate than someone, but I gotta give him a bit of credit.

Sorry, but I have learned to embrace and enjoy my sin.
