As far as embodying the creeds and ritual of GLOs - I think it is the same for any group. You have some to whom it is important, and who work to incorporate it into their lives. You have some who are only interested in the more social aspects - but one can hope that the more spiritual elements might make an impression. You can plant a seed - and it may not flower for years. Still, it is there. I taught at a Christian school. Many of our students were there simply because their parents made them go to get a good education. You would be amazed how many of them, years later, went into the ministry or became active in their churches, and point to the influence of the school. So it is with GLOs. Sometimes the character and spirituality aspects may not seem to make an impression - but look at how many alumni turn around and commit themselves to the GLO years after college.
I would hope that whatever draws you to the GLO, the larger, lasting elements are what are going to stay with you.
