I understand, maybe I should have been more clear. What I meant to say was I think that the all-male chapters in Alpha Delta believed that the Purpose was not only an oath, but the most important oath in our Pledge Books. For obvious reasons we have not made the changes to the Purpose as indicated by nationals. Furthermore, our chapters (obviously) believe that both (p)Purposes were completely incongruent with each other.
