Gina_lynn,
While I think what the Omega brother did was admirable, I think you are missing some of the reality of what True? is saying. I have distributed clothes to the homeless before and 9 times out of 10 what is on their minds as they are picking out clothes is: 1) is it clean? 2) does it fit? I have yet to hear anyone ask what the little horsie thingie is, say I don't wear X-brand because of their history of supporting certain causes etc. When you are trying to be clean/warm/dry etc. the 'design' (which is what the greek letters are going to mean to some) on the shirt is quite insignificant. The larger question in that example is, in my opinion, why did someone who obviously knew the significance of the 'design' feel it was o.k. to give it to Goodwill, a clothes closet,etc? Of course it could have been a family member of the fraternity member, but it would still seem to me that they would know.
