Think for a moment about wedding ceremonies. At most all weddings, the bride and groom take a vow in front of everyone to be faithful to one another only. Yet, look at how many people go on to committ adultery. It's as if they saw the wedding and their vows as "just a tradition" or "just a formality".

My opinion? An oath is an oath. It should be kept unless a person is released from it.

I think it should even go a bit further. For example, members who chose to deactivate or members who had their membership revoked. They might feel that they were released from their oath, but I disagree. Regardless if you remain a member, an oath is an oath. Even if you were at odds with the members of your chapter, that doesn't give you the right to betray your organization.
