"Hellenic Culture and Christian Ideals"
Chi Omega's Open Motto
If you'll REALLY knew our ritual (but you never will-unless you're initiated), you would realize what we were founded...hmm, let me think for a sec - oh, wait...okay...could it be Christian values? Ding-Ding-Ding!!! Yay! I won!!!
Okay, I'm a Christian (Catholic, to be percise). And I'm also in charge of initiations....wooo - and I also have morals and values...even scarier - huh?! But I'm a Christian before a Chi O and I would never praise anything before God, no one worships Demeter, the owl, or any other symbols and such of our sorority. That is ridiculous! I praise God and worship him also! But if I choose to be a part of an org. that is my choice and as long as I know I am not compromising my beliefs or standards, then more power to me! Rituals are just something shared amongst members to unify them - and just that. Nothing More. I'm in charge of our new members and I make damn sure, there'll never be hazed while in Chi Omega. I never was and to me, that doesn't promote sisterhood (brotherhood), it just fosters negativity and bad feelings. I feel sorry for Kristen and Barb that they are so hung up on their little lives and the bad things that happen. All I can say is to Let Go and Let God. I hope he gives you forgiveness, so you can forgive the people who wronged you and enables you to move on in your lives in stead of just dwelling on your miserable life. You think that you have so much power with your attorneys and such. Obviously you don't, so move on. I know I shouldn't even waste my time on this topic but thats just my 2 cents.
