Doing the right thing is doing something for God.

No one was ridiculing them based on their Christian beliefs, but on their poor use of Greek, their insulting attitude toward other sororities and yes, that the entire sorority from improper Greek letters (TWICE) to the pledging process was divinely inspired. Even then, most people said that if it worked for them, so be it, but thankfully God gave us the ability to think that something is weird as hell.

I am not honor bound as a Christian to support another Christian regardless of her actions. I do not support priests who molest children, preachers who have affairs and do drugs, or Christians who forget Jesus' lessons on humility. If God had wanted sheep he wouldn't have given us free will.

(And if you've missed the many discussions about religion on here, you aren't looking. Don't open your mouth and claim things like you did if you don't educate yourself first. )
Ms. Drolle,

It doesn't matter how well you explain something to them, they fail to understand... I've tried several times and they have called me "all kinna names but a child of God..." Their MO is to belittle others for self-aggrandizement. I don't care if they disagree with me or anyone else, but they cannot debate and argue point by point. Then they want YOUR gratification for saying they cannot argue your points with a personal attacks...

Good luck though!

I am just wondering where all the Rev. Fred Hatcher Ministries cult members--I mean membership are...

They just bash the NPHC Sororities--guess we are the easiest since we were founded by African American women nearly 100 years ago...

ETA: good post though! Really interesting POV...

Thanks, I'll be honest, this "type" of Christian, the one always telling everyone else how to be, how to be "saved", how to have a "personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior" generally gets under my skin. Possibly it's the Catholic in me yelling at the young punks to get off my lawn. Many times I just roll my eyes and move on, but I felt like posting this time. (Perhaps the Spirit moved me )


The funny thing about them bashing the D4 is that I've always seen less of the drinking and partying stereotype associated with those orgs than associated with the NPC. I mean, at least bash the real party girls, right?

(On a side note, can no one spell my name right? Drole, Fille. I know it's french, but there are plenty of people who don't have words in their names. Nothing personal, it's just that I'm always Drolefile, or drollfille or something else. It's "funny girl" in French. NOT THAT HARD. *vented*)

Pardon Madmoiselle.

That is the best I can do without copious amounts of alcohol... And I should know how to spell your name. I do know what it means...

Did you ever know that you're my herrrreeeeoooooooo

Drolefille - I'm sorry if I've messed up your name in the past - I'll be very careful from here on out. You and AKA Monet go on my heroes list for the past few posts.
One good thing about all this mess (on not 1 but 2! 2! threads - the topic so great it could not be contained!) is that I have a renewed appreciation for the intelligence and wit of many members of Greekchat.
So it's all good!

I was thinking the same thing!

Judging by earlier posts, the real party girls are those Frenchie-talking girls with all their "vin!!!!

Oh, Alphafrog meant the two of us, I'm sure.
