My last post

I didn't know Jews for Jesus is a Christian group. My whole point was that people can believe Jesus existed, and respect his message of love, without believing he was the son of God. Therefore, a non-Christian wishing to join a GLO's based on Christian principles would probably still feel comfortable in their initiation if the initiation contained that kind of a Christian message. I was trying to help the PNM feel more comfortable about that. That's all

That being said, there are sororities that have had non-Christian founders, or were non-sectarian from the beginnings. But unless a sorority defines itself as a "Christian Sorority" and that usually very easy to find out, then I wouldn't worry too much about initiation conflicting with your beliefs. Good Luck!

Question, for anyone...I am sure that many initiations require the new member to kneel before taking vows. If you are not permitted to dicuss this, them please do not divulge private info. But my friend who is Jewish told me that to kneel before another is against her beliefs. So her sorority let her kind of "squat' instead. I didn't get a chance to ask her more about it-the kneeling part-not the ritual! Anyone know what this is about? Just curious.
