You've got it right here. You could also add that these radical Christians fail to grasp the meaning and significance of metaphor when it comes to the rituals of fraternities and sororities. (And I would say that, from what I've seen, they also have a somewhat warped view of Scripture.)

Seriously, ignore them. Trust your own experience and the people you have known and who have influenced you.

For my own part, I've never felt any conflict between my own Christian faith and my GLO. To the contrary, I have tended to see the values that my fraternity cherishes as complimentary to my faith. And I've never had anyone suggest to me that I should see any conflict.

Simply put, for me it's never been an issue at all.
