So what if former fraternity members have a weekend in the woods every year? Who cares what they do there. Part of beeing in a fraternity is having more or less bizarre traditions and rituals. Nothing more to it.
We had ours when I was a student. We even had mock human sacrifice in old Viking tradition. 'Blot' as it is called. All in good fun, and we got silly drunk.
Doesn't mean I believe in the Viking gods. Just as the Skull and Bones Owl fascination dosn't make Bush junior (or senior for that matter) into occultists.
Bush is very much a christian. Not only does he not miss a chance to actually say so, but he also regulary have meetings and other contact with various very fundamentalist preachers and pastors. Not even to mention his support to faith based (read: christian) programs and organizations.
His denial of funds to relief and humanitarian organizations that promote condom-use in AIDS ridden parts of Africa is typical. Only a true christian could seriously believe abstinence is a viable option.

... does this mean you're not going to show me the tooth fairy?
also... i'm rather surprised.... were you just being a bush appologist... no wait, not even... you were suggesting they might not be up to their necks in all sorts of weird rituals and in part responsible for millions (perhaps billions?) of deaths. ...! how bizarre.
whether they are occultists and/or reptilians isn't quite the issue to me. its the deeds done, doing and yet to be done lest something intervenes, brought forth from whatever it is that motivates such actions which i consider more pertinent for raising alarm bells over.
anyhoo... sticking a feather up your butt doesnt make you a chicken just the same that proclaiming yourself a christian might not necessarily make it so either. i still say it's a
PR scam.
now show me the damn tooth fairy!
