    There is no evidence that anything supernatural exists but people are abusively indoctrinated into religion during childhood & then immorally made into anti-intellectuals by GA culture. You should go with the evidence & face the fact that no God is real, but morality/ethics is important, along with science & they're well worth living for.

    p.s. there is a methamphetamine epidemic on campus. Because of the recession, meth addicts who have lost there jobs are smoking it in the restrooms & it is being distributed through the air conditioning systems. An amount too small to show up on a drug test is enough to have a profound effect. I hope you are ok, whomever you are, but if you are at UWG & have been in an academic building, you are probably on meth against your will. This is surely the biggest public safety/health issue UWG has ever encountered.

    I use my Sorority, AKA, as another outlet to show and spread the love of Jesus Christ. I love my sorority and the wonderful seeds we sow into the community and to the less fortunate; but nothing or no one comes before God. I think it's all in the person, your trust, your faith, your relationship and your walk with the Lord. I know whose I am and who I serve--Jesus Christ! So, being in the sorority is just another way to minister to other about the love and selflessness of Jesus Christ. But to each his own and if God told you to let it go, then let it go! Be blessed!
