I don't have the scriptures on me, but what was told to me was that the bible says that joining any orginazations in which the initiation is secretative or selective. It says that God doesn't discriminate so org. shouldn't. I'm not an expert in this field and I WILL do a lot more research before I decide any thing. Thank you for your repose!!!

who did tell you what the bible says about GLO's?
How can the bible say anything about GLO's that evolved in the last two or three centuries......?
Be careful of the wannabe saints that can find a bible citation for every thing they want to proove - they do find one, because the bible is written that way.
You will also find that Jesus attended the Canaa wedding and transformed water into wine - so I doubt he is all against partying!
As a practising roman catholic I see no problems in combining one's spirituality with the sense of friendship, social activity and also partying and drinking alcohol in a fraternity. It is always a matter of quantity... and that is in your hands.
Go ahead and pledge and try to get your own picture of things. Try not to have other people, who often do not know what they are talking about, create this picture (in this case of GLO's).
