The Ancient and Accepted Rite (Rose Croix)

Postby The Uninitiated » Wed Nov 15, 2023 9:04 am

The Supreme Council of England and Wales have decided to waive the requirement that candidates for Perfection need to be Trinitarian Christians.

Given the story that the Ceremony of Perfection tells, while this may now be of interest to Christians who are non-Trinitarian, I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone of an alternate religion would be interested?

Is this the right decision?

Looking at it from a different point of view, why would you not want to share that message with everyone else?

Wrong decision and the black ball awaits the first applicant followed by my resignation. The whole system of Freemasonry, with the exception of Mark of which I am not a member, seems to have lost its way. It seems to be focused purely on bums on seats forgetting the maxim of quality not quantity. Too many Lodges and Chapters with barely any members relying on guests and visitors to fill offices and rather than put a few out of their misery by surrendering warrants or allowing amalgamations, they left to struggle on.

Closure of lodges affects Provincial appointments...
