I don't see a problem with owning/collecting badges.

If it's not yours, you probably don't understand it. If you've somehow gotten into posession of a ritual book that explains it, you still don't understand it.

I'd rather someone who was a member of that GLO have posession of it, but nobody put me in charge.

I especially don't see the problem with me owning/collecting my own badge. I know and understand the meaning behind it. It has special meaning and beauty to me.

And from a purely vain point of view, I could easily see having been initiated with mom's gold Alpha Phi pin and then getting my own white gold badge later. What, am I going to get rid of mom's badge just because I don't wear yellow gold?
