"Leathers?" No. "Cuts" with Patches over a t-shirt, yes.
And i don't wear a racing suit, just armored pants or kevlar jeans, armored jacket, gloves and a full face helmet. I am an MSF RiderCoach and practice what I preach.
I have personal opinions about the "look and feel" of the WS group. But I know in PA they do good work for charity.
Personally I think the "Pirate" look is not a good one, but I am sure you can tell from my Avatar I am a "Motorcyclist" not a "Biker" and I dress for safety and the elements when...
It is likely pedantic but IMO you need to mention both the Modern and Ancient Grand Lodges for the statement to make sense. i.e. Would it be proper to say "The Massachusetts Bay Colony, Which became the United States of America, was established in 1630"?
Our Grand Secretary does great work.
There is also a staff of researchers at our Grand Lodge Library who access such information quickly, since the vast majority has been digitized
I apologize for misunderstanding the Jurisdiction you are under.
My Grandfather was a Mason in Connecticut. I had no idea what Lodge he belonged to. I asked my Secretary how best to find his Masonic history and her said the "Official" way would likely take several months. He said "Just send...

So, I broke down and petitioned to join Damascus Commandry No 95, which meets in the building where My Blue Lodge and HRA Chapter also meet.
Frankly I have done zero research into the path ahead here, but I figured I may have some spare time as I will no longer be High Priest and the only...
From a simple Google search i found that there are 3 Lodges in Jordan under the Supervision of the Grand Lodge of Scotland.

Google is your friend!
It appears you are from the UAE. If this is the case there are no Lodges in your area as your Government does not allow Freemasonry to exist in your Country. Unless you move to somewhere where Freemasonry is allowed to operate you can not join.
The appendant bodies (York Rite and Scottish Rite, etc) Assign numbers to their Degrees. There is a 4th Degree in York Rite Chapter as well as a Scottich Rite 4th Degree in the Lodge of Perfection, as an example.
The 33rd Degree is the Final Degree in the Scottish Rite system. It is only...
