I am a man of faith deeply committed to my religeous beliefs but I find all of this about "christian fraternities and sororities" to be utter hogwash. If you want to join a prayer group or bible study group that's fine. But, if you want to be in a fraternity or sorority then rush with a clear understanding of what it is all about.
Being in an imitation fraternity or sorority makes no sense and demonstrates that one has missed the point of the whole Social Greek system. To pretend that one's GLO confers social Greek status is nonsense. To dress up a prayer group or a bunch of bible thumpers in Greek letters is offensive to me and to many others with whom I have discussed the matter.
The idea of a bunch of GDIs playing pretend would be amusing except the virtually universal attitude of smug superiority exhibited by these types who trumpet their "christianity" while displaying a serious lack of Christian values. As the old saying goes, if you talk the talk you have to walk the walk.
So, what sticks in my craw is the non-Christian aura of these so-called christians coupled with their complete lack of understanding of what being Greek is all about.
If you take offense at my comments so be it. I am offended by these imposters and their perversion of what being Christian is all about.
If these comments seem a bit on the strong side it is my reaction to all too many encounters with self satisfied smug types who tell me that I am damned because I am not like them, (as if its their role to be judgmental).
I figure they are perfectly free to do their own thing, but please don't pretend to be a real social Greek org.
