It's not....and that is part of the problem. Some Greek organization's history and traditions are more infiltrated into scripture than others...and you are right...without breaking any ritual secrets...at a minimum, to WHAT degree they are involved, should at least be mentioned.

Wow, thanks for the replies, everyone.

I attended a catholic high school for four years, and I cooperated with morning prayer, mass, etc. I don't have a problem with their beliefs, but I guess it'll be up to the fraternity to decide. I'll tell them tomorrow when I get back to school.

My opinion is that if you don't have a problem cooperating then I don't see any reason the fraternity really needs to know.

Nobody ever said you had to believe everything you hear or say for that matter. I don't know if your fraternity is based in christianity or not (most are I believe) but as long as you uphold the core values (brotherhood, friendship - whatever they are) no one will know you're just going through the motions during any religious parts that may come up. I don't think any of us believe that we are in church, although we do take it seriously, when we meet with our GLOs even if it is for ritual.
