and 2) Do you profess belief in a higher supreme being?

An atheist will NEVER be initiated into the fraternity knowingly. If one ever is, they will be expelled from the fraternity IMMEDIATELY.
Pike is another exception to that study in asking questions like these prior to the ceremony as well as others. However, if one does answer negatively to the second question, an alternate is asked about proceeding given that Christian ideals are present in the initiation ceremony. It could follow then, that there are Pikes who are athiests.

Docetboy, I would check your ritual. Since Pike and Kappa Sig are similar in their questioning aspect, it wouldn't surprise me that the two agree in letting an individual that does not believe in a higher being proceed once agreeing that there are religious beliefs in the ceremony. But I could be wrong.
