One can learn history and gain an appreciation for the organization without being hazed. And you're right - pledging is not supposed to be life threatening. By adding (some) hazing methods to the mix, it can definitely be life threatening.
I appreciate your story about basic training, GIJANE, but pledging a fraternity/sorority, as I'm sure you're aware, is vastly different from preparing for combat. The two really shouldn't be compared.
