You may want to consider whether you have a problem with Christian values and references to Jesus and God or whether you just don't want to actually have to say any Christian prayers. I'm an agnostic greek and don't have a problem with any organization founded on Christian values ("love thy neighbor as thyself" and that sort of general stuff) but would have a real problem if I was asked to actually practice Christiananity or to pray to Jesus (like in a Christian sorority). My advice would be to clarify exactly what would make you uncomfortable and then ask the girls whether they expect you to participate in a way in which you would prefer not to. Also ask if they participate in any Christian activities as a sisterhood (for example do the sisters go to church together regularly and would they find it strange if you didn't?). GLO's want you to be where you feel comfortable and happy. Most sororities do their best not to be religiously exclusive, even ones which identify themselves with a certain religious philosophy.
