Koinonia,
Trust me, I do not presume to know anyone. However, it does appear that you presume to know the quality of the people associated with the Sigs. So as not to digress any further...I'll leave you to live with your own judgement.
To get back on point, you have included the rules that Harding has set up for "hazing" activities. These are the types of rules that exactly make my point. My point is that Harding, while trying to be a Christian university, is extremely strict! Trust me, I have seen the university expell people for very dumb reasons. And while I do not know exactly what happened in this situation, will anyone ever know?, Harding's track record is not very stellar. I truly hope that a forgiving spirit returns to that school very soon. We certainly can all represent a Christian spirit better than Harding has.
I thank you very much for your opinion. I truly hope you enjoy your time at Harding. It is a great school. However, I hope the school can be a better repesentitive of Christianity to the college community. I don't think in any of my comments I truly insulted you. If that is what you gathered from my comments, than I am sorry. It certainly was not my intention to insult you. But, I feel that in this situation and in many others I've seen and been in at Harding, the school can do a better job at represent Christ. "He who has no sin..."
Please, keep me informed of the situation there. Although, from what I currently know, I disagree with your opinion, this does not mean that my opinion wouldn't change. And certainly, no one should every get over there "what is wrong with Harding" mindset. To make the university great, it should be constantly evaluated. Am I right?
So, with all that being said, nothing about this situation makes me happy. Obviously, the club did something that wasn't on the mark. And certainly, the university could do a lot better at forgiveness. I feel that your intial comments were a quite harsh and sounded extremely judgemental. I wanted to make sure that others reading this board did not get the wrong idea about the social clubs at Harding.
Once again, good luck in all you do at Harding. Hopefully this situation will not cast a negative light on Harding (although, in a lot of places it already is). And yes, I knew what Koinonia meant. There is a camp here of the same name. Thanks again.
God Bless.
