It could really offend some people if you participate in a ritual that you don't believe in. Of course you won't know until you go through it, and by then it's too late!

Go through Recruitment and feel it out. You can talk frankly with your Recruitment Counselor about such things and she will be able to give you a lot of insight about the campus sorority culture. those conversations are pretty confidential so don't be afraid to ask any questions that you may have.
I'm not sure about people being offended because a member doesn't believe in God even if He is in the ritual if the member believes in the sorority's values and what they stand for...sounds a little unfair to me.
