In my country we have four constitutions - GLSA, GLS, GLI and UGLE - (South African, Scotish, Irish and English) - All four regular and as far as the blue lodge degrees go, accepted everywhere.
Someone told me yesterday that from the side degrees onwards, lets say Mark/Royal Arch etc, it is not always recognized by the other constitutions if you do it with one, and vice versa. It seems like there are some politics where a person with lets say a RA degree of even as high as a KT degree with one rite, might not be welcome at all in a RA degree of another rite etc. Is the scotish rite "against" the york rite etc?
Is there any truth in all this.. if so, why?
