Third, the Torah is only the first five books of the Bible, so Psalms is in the Old Testament, but not in the Torah.

Thank you for that clarification!

Finally, it would seem to me that this is a pretty small issue, meaning that not a lot of women have a problem with our sorority being too religious (judging from the comments made and from my own experiences with chapter members). It's bound to happen with a few, but nothing to get too upset over. Many chapters even have Bible study prides!

I agree that this issue is not pervasive across our membership, perhaps due in part to the location of our chapters. At a particular chapter in the Northeast, I have knowledge that it is a major issue. At the chapter where I advise, also in the NE, I find that one Alpha per class is uncomfortable placing her hand upon a bible. I know that is ok and we make it known that it is acceptable not to do so. It happens frequently but is not a major issue.
