The truth

Hello all, I have the honor of being an active member of the Sigma Chi fraternity. I was sent here by a classmate who claims the ritual of Sigma Chi is, in fact, leaked onto the internet, and that anyone who so wishes may see the secret ceremonies and literature that we live our lives by. Reading through the comments posted left me wondering so I did extensive research in finding all sources I could.

There is no Time magazine article that states the Sigma chi Ritual is 2nd best kept secret, I looked for hours on many websites and search engines with no avail. That was likely a false statment made by a Sigma Chi to throw off the "diggers" as many of you here are. There is no literature at all that suggests that any of the documents online are false. You can go to google and simply type in "Sigma Chi Ritual" and up it pops.

http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy&h...a4617bb3453d18

There is in fact a copy of our ritual sealed into the Library of Congress. The fraternity was forced to send a copy of our ritual to have a copyright implemented. (http://www.phigam.org/netcommunity/document.doc?id=348) That being said, if it were against the law(http://www.copyright.gov/title17/) to scan every page of our Ritual book (which I can assure you is much longer than 136 pages) wouldn't they have removed it by now? Wouldn't there be some kind of governing mechanism that removes copyrighted documents? Yes here it is: http://www.rbs2.com/copyr.htm --- Anything that infringes copyrighted documentation is immediately flagged for removal.

Being one of the hallowed few to actually see the real ritual and be enshrined in headquarters as a member, I can assure you i have read the so called ritual online, it's not even close to what our real ritual entails. After seeing the ritual, our chapter advisor assured us that headquarters releases false rituals every year for parents to see before they let their son be a part of it. I can find you 2 "official" rituals right now that are completely different in text.

Some of you may wonder why I would go out of my way to make this wall of text to set the facts straight if it wasn't really the ritual posted. the answer to that is very simple. I don't like anyone disrespecting my fraternity without justification. You see that posted ritual and you lose respect for us because it's no longer a secret. I can promise everyone reading this right now that if you want a real look at our sacred ritual then enroll in a university, and complete all of the processes of initiation.

Now maybe some of you are former pledges that tried to be one of the hallowed few to see the sacred ritual of Sigma Chi and failed. Maybe some of you are the outsider that is envious of the popularity that comes with being part of this fraternity. Maybe some of you are are just opposition defiant and demand sources to every statment ever made by those who cherish the code that we live by. Whatever the case may, I am truly sorry you will never experience the true values at which we hold ourselves.

In Hoc Signo Vinces (In this sign we conquer)
