Would you join one if invited to join?
Has anyone here ever joined one?

Can You stay true to God and obey the ten commandments? I read some of it on wikipedia, it seems like it is an academic society and not an occultic society. Even a mention of boyscouts but I guess it all depends on where Your focus is and at what cost. If You have the time and are not of the fearful type it might be worth the try. There are a lot of important things happening in the world worth knowing of right now.

Academic based on grades or character.

I didn’t realize “Honor Society” could be in reference to anything other than academic. I’m only refering to the academic type.

Becoming a member is the driving reason behind landing my current job. It looks good on a resume, but the long term connections are most important in my opinion. If you have the option to join, I would strongly recommend at least investigating how it could help you in your personal position.

What are "long term connections"? People you know who are in it as well? The label of being in it?
Thanks for the tip, I appreciate it. I'm not sure if it would be useful or not for me. The invitation tries to make it sound great by saying where some members have gotten jobs at but, I feel that there has to be more to it than just being a part of an honor society.
That's awesome that you were able to get your job through that.

Hello. I was part of my college Honor society. Attending was honestly a total waste of time. Where I was, it was just a group of humanists using up college funds to do research on societal subjects, plan conferences and retreats, and schedule mini vacations all in the name of serving society. It was very odd. I think the point of them is to have a badge on your resume--little else.
