My reply to PhoenixAzul's question - "...could we possibly see Christian Greeks branch off into their own governing body? Or seek membership in one of the existing councils? (correct me if any already have.)" - was to simply note that their is an existing council - the NIC - that already includes various "types" (for lack of a better word) of social fraternities. Including, but not limited to, faith, academic, and culture. As such, I would venture to guess that any fraternity that meets the NIC's membership requirements would be welcome into the NIC.
I just don't think that these Christian sororities and fraternities are social as much as religious. I'd even bet that those religious principles would preclude them from most social activities that would involve NPC/NIC houses.

If they were social with just a Christian founding principal they wouldn't be different from ATO or most other fraternities out there. Whether someone sees them as a fraternity/sorority or just another student group is up to that person, but they don't seem to be operating in the same realm as a traditional fraternity/sorority. To really boil it down into a one sentence reply to phoenixazul: What if pigs could fly?
