Re: GDI...does it bother anyone else?

Has anyone else found the term GDI (when used to describe an unaffiliated person) offensive? It's just never sat well with me. Partly, that's because I have a lot of Christian friends who think that "GD" in general is really, really bad.

Also, it looks like we have some sort of disdain for unaffiliated people, which we all know isn't the case.

It just seems like the use of "GDI" only helps to perpetuate the very false view a lot of people have of Greeks -- that we're snobby, elitist, what have you.

I'm curious to hear what other people think.
Although alot of Greek jargon has slipped into the non-greek vocabulary, some people don't even know they are GDI or what GDI is. I know at my school that term is not used.
