I feel you on everything else, but I would Never turn my back on a member of my fraternity. Paper, plastic, steal, whatever. I don't really like these terms. A true test of a persons luv, is how they conduct themselves after intiation. Any fool can take a beat down. Hell I can go out here in the street and take an ass whipping. But from what I been told, the purpose of pledging is to 1) create a bond of between the perspective members, 2) to teach them to be humble and never think yourselves better than others 3) to train them become leaders by use of various techniques both mental and physical. The leasons that a person learns through a "Process" can help them to deal with many different situations that they face in life. I have not been a greek that long, and I luv to talk to older bras that have been in The Bond for 20 or 30 years, becuase that is when you trully get an idea of what this is all about.
Peace and Luv

Skee-Yo,
I agree with what you are saying oh pretty one. Your pledging should never be in vain but if you are going to pledge know your purpose and your worth. ALL BGLO's should pledge and be pledged, but ONLY to provide unity and teach valuable lessons to propective bruh's and sorors. That is the real deal. Any other reason is not that of our founders and should not be entertained.
"Remember, if you are true to your game and true to your name, your inner-self will remain the same. If you have falsehood, it will never be good and your respect will wither away."
Just a little AKA note.
