Hmm, it's more of the other way around, actually.
I'm not sure how to phrase this discreetly and without sounding like my priorities in choosing a sorority might not be in order, but when a social group tries to dictate what I can and can't do in my social time and my private life, I am not down with that. And even though I believe that non-Christians are allowed to join Mal, their principles as an organization make it clear that a certain amount of grooviness with Jesus is expected. Mal is definitely out of the question for me.
I've been talking to a couple of my friends about Saito, at least one of them is going to list Saito, and reading this thread and knowing what I know from recruitment stories around here, I've decided I am going to keep them on my list. I am not expecting to change my mind, but I'm trying to keep it open. Thanks for the input, everyone.
