As appalling as it might sound to people on GC, I wouldn't have really thought of the badge, ritual, etc. as "sacred." It seems fair to say that members long ago put some thought and effort into them, and they've been shared by many women in each sorority since then. But realistically, a lot of the open mottoes seem like ... well, things that were composed by young women during the Victorian era. Nothing wrong with that, just nothing I'd consider religiously significant either. So I think my personality, like Q on Star Trek, is probably too iconoclastic for Greek Life.
I pretty much agreed with most of what you said until this part. I don't consider anything related to my organization to be sacred, or religiously significant -- and really, I didn't think that anybody else did either. My badge and ritual are special to me, but I wouldn't call it sacred, but then, I'm not religious.
