Many Greek-letter groups were founded by Christian ministers and Christianity was a central impulse motivating them in their ventures, whether Catholic, Lutheran, Protestant, etc. Altough almost all groups don't officially discriminate according to creed, in many groups there still is a strong Christian ethos. These are not side issues but they are indicative of the what these groups are. Similarly, there are historically Jewish and non-sectarian groups(Jew-Gentile) and general non-sectarian. One of the genius of the Greek-letter system is that there is something for everyone. And it also highlights the fact that Greek-letter groups are about more than wine,women(or men) and song;they were founded on much deeper principles which are often obscured.
