Here's the thing: I don't think it's fair for us to not warn these girls about religion in ritual during rush -- what if one of the girls who's rushing knows she won't be comfortable in a house that has Jesus/God/religious references in the ritual? If she doesn't find out before she signs her bid card, she'll end up having to depledge and wait a year before she can rush again, and at many schools this will limit her choices severely or deny her the opportunity altogether. IMO that's not fair to do to these girls -- we need to make it clear if religion is a part of our rituals. I also know that we are supposed to avoid any topics related to religion during rush . . . so what's the solution?
I honestly think that the national websites should make it OBVIOUS if their ritual includes religious references, especially if it's an integral part of the ritual that cannot be modified. That would be an easy solution for everyone involved -- so why isn't it done?
