While it's not a requirement to be jewish, I would want to know if these girls are going to be comfortable with rituals and whatnot. And need we forget that most NPC sororities and IFC fraternities were based originally on some form of religion. I can name a few.

here is the problem with that reasoning....this show is called Sorority Life NOT "Local sorority life" or "Jewish sorority life'. There is NO type of disclaimer that this is a local sorority and NOT a national pahhellenic. There is NO mention that national sororities would NOT be allowed EVER to base decisions on religion. So therefore, high schoolers WILL assume that ALL of us do that. I don't care if they are a Jewish or Catholic sorority...they are NOT a representative of the whole. they are ONLY a representative of themselves...and that is never stated during the rush/recruitment procedure.
and who cares if some sororities have religious backgrounds? we are NOT allowed to discriminate based on religion. period.
and like AXOAlum said...I ain't no chicken.
