Ask yourself, are these realities or perceptions...? From my point of view, those statements are opinions (perceptions). The association of these greek organization with pagan/egyptian gods is definitely factual (reality) though. The evidence is quite clear in a few cases where the representative god is overtly displayed on some crest and/or emblem of prominence.
I highly doubt that the founders of black greek organizations were undercover pagans. But, be aware that black greek organizations, in some ways, stem from white greek organizations. The relationship is not direct but there is definitely a relationship. With this in mind, and taking into the account that black greek organizations are a response and in some ways, an off shoot of white greek organization, the real question becomes--"were the founders of most of these white greek organization possibly undercover pagans"...and to be honest, I think so. Especially when you realize that the "free-masons", possibly the oldest "brotherhood" in existance, and possibly the blue print from which many, or a few, of these white greek organizations are based on, is heavily inundated with pagan rituals, symbols, and gods.
To me, the fact that all these organizations have some association with some pagan/egyptian god is proof enough that this is more than a random correlation--which is what I assume you're implying (i could be wrong in my interpretation h/e). And even if these correlations come with the territory--then we're right back at my OG question, which is inferred (I would hope) in my OG post. Which asks whether it is appropriate for Christians to associate with the aforemention fraternities and sororities--greek organizations-- which clearly show associations and correlations to pagan/egyptian gods.

But christianity ITSELF is heavily centered around Pagan traditions...
If anything, people of african decent should lean more towards african ideologies more than anything
