I'm disturbed that someone said jewish Greek organizations are "not religious." The AEPi chapter at both the school I used to attend and the one I currently attend are encouraged to attend Friday night Shabbas services, as regularly coordinate events in conjunction with the Hillel Jewish Stduent Oganizations.

So what qualifies Jewish sororities and fraternities as being "not Jewish"???
Well, he can certainly speak for himself [/understatement], but I think if you read carefully, you'll see that Rudey, who is an AEPi, didn't dispute the Jewish connections of the traditionally-Jewish GLOs. I think he was disputing suggestions that the traditionally-Jewish GLOs were founded to further "Jewish principles" or for primarily religious purposes rather than for primarily social purposes.
