I was just pointing out that I consider that a modification, and it has worked very well in my chapter.

You know... you are right. I hadn't really considered that a modification of the ritual, but it is. When "modification" was mentioned, I think I imagined something much more drastic.
I also agree that Phi Mu is a little different than many sororities... God is mentioned openly in the Creed and it would very difficult for new members not to know that religion is involved.
However... I am not entirely convinced that Love, Honor and Truth is what it's ALL about. I think women of all religions could be happy in Phi Mu; it makes me glad to hear that as a Jewish sister, it's worked out for you. But I can't imagine someone who was atheist or otherwise had very little belief in any type of higher being feeling comfortable in Phi Mu. Like I've stated before, I can't speak for all Phi Mus, but that's my own take on the situation.
