Hmmm...isn't Christianity its own fraternity? Why are the "Greek" letters necessary? Is it a recruitment tool or something?

The Christian "fraternity" from my yard wore line jackets, had line names, and had a "probate" show like the NPHC organizations. Is THAT a recruitment tool?

Are you more of a Christian if you have "Greek" letters on?

this thread had better be a mother-mary date-raping joke of some sort.


If you are in organization that specific about color and creed please take your greek letters off NOW! [i know its just a joke, i want in on it] you have no idea of what brother is truly about if you only want to be brothers with people who are the exact same as you. I hope you get a DUI and get raped in the ass by some guy named Chaplula. Si, like at taco bell.

Most of our memebers are black, but we do have some sisters from another school and those members are white.

I applaud Christian fraterntities/sororities who are actually doing the worl of God on there campus. Like Alpha Lambda Omega Christian Sorority, Inc. They are really out here to win souls for Christ. I heard that they just chartered another chapter in Michigan or Illinois somewhere.

I think Alpha Lambda Omega CHristian Sorority is at that school as well. I know that Alpha Lambda Omega is really big in the south and they have a lot of chapters in Texas.

Ironically there is a poem about Christianity being the "first fraternity" but as far as my own organization is concerned its not a "recruitment tool" nore does it mean you're any more "Christian" than anybody else. Its just that in order to minister more effectively to a college campus, we use the Greek-Lettered familiarity(sp?) to reach the campus since Greeks are very well known and have a lot of voice on a collegiate campus. Do we have line jackets? Yes. Do we have line names? Yes. Do we have coming out shows(we do ours a little different though)? Yes we do...In the grand scheme of things, does it really matter? Nope...

Having seen an Alpha Nu Omega probate, it really is a different experience. Not ENTIRELY, but definitely very classy. The org also seems to have a solid structure and a great support system for its undergrads. It shows in its expansion and its programming.

The other good thing about the org is that it really is what it says it is -- a Christian Alternative. When I see Alpha Nu Omega members, I don't see them as competition. I don't see their members as somebody Alpha lost out on. I say hey, that person found the right fit for them.

If they're happy, so am I.
