I feel that we should all embrace the charity virtue more. My chapter especially needs to work on the "slow to reprove him of his faults" part of the DOP. People can be quick to name, quick to label, and all too quick to judge.
::steps up on soapbox:: people call tekes "geeks" or "blanket bidders" or other insulting things like that; but I doubt they realize that part of the DOP that deliberately instructs us to find the good aspects in a person and to try not to pigeonhole him the minute we meet him. we embrace diversity and search for that uniqueness that will benefit the fraternity in more ways than having a warm body that drinks beer. ::steps off soapbox::
Charity, my personal favorite of the triple obligations.
