The few people I've seen demit and renounce have done so from lack of understanding of Masonic teachings, ritual, and grand lodge code.

One reason I've seen is political in-fighting.

Re: What are some of the reason you brothers have

The only repeating I reason remember is they were happy with their membership in a different fraternity. I've heard this on several demits and on a couple of guys who weren't interested enough to request a demit. The one off reasons tend to be strange when they happen.

I don't know if the statistics include demitting to another lodge or another jurisdiction.

Many demits and NPDs don't give a reason. Sometimes we can guess it's because they don't want to accept charity but it's only a guess.

We loose a couple each year it seems for Non Payment of Dues. However, the only 2 members in recent history in our Lodge that Demited, done so to avoid Masonic Charges.
