Sorry but in this case if you do one, you definitely gotta do the other.
Also, volunteering at Planned Parenthood could be interpreted as "volunteering in the community" and not "political," and there are plenty of people out there who don't agree with some of the things PP does.

As long as no member of a certain religion is told they CAN'T wear their letters around their religious organization, I don't see the problem. For instance, a lot of my chapter sisters regularly attended Campus Outreach in letters. I affiliate with no religion, but I can't think of a reason why that would offend me. I'm not talking about militant groups that preach prejudice against another group or religion, but instead bible studies, campus outreach meetings, or for instance being a camp counselor at camps with religious affiliation that are moderate. I know it's POSSIBLE that someone would assume we were a Christian chapter because sisters attended CO while wearing letters, but that's probably not likely. It depends on the chapter and their campus's culture I'm sure.
IMO that's different from attending a "pro-life" stake out of an abortion clinic, or other such public and radical rallies.
