    How many masons from Oklahoma here

    Your lodge, Daylight 542, though I don't live in Tulsa anymore.

    1717-2017

    I am surprised if the dinner is booked. Certainly that information has not been communicated to the provinces. Source? And, to quibble, it is the UGLE anniversary.

    Expressing Masonic affiliation while in uniform?

    No, you can't wear a Masonic lapel pin on your military uniform.

    Let me know when your MM is. I may be able to come back.

    Irregular Masonic Bodies Operating in Texas

    The underlying concept is legitimacy of origin. Just to clarify, not all grand lodges were founded by another grand lodge. A number were founded by three or more lodges with charters/warrants from regular grand lodges.

    One Day Masonic Class/Journey

    Actually, I am a member of two other fraternal orders. My grandfather and great grandfather were Odd Fellows. I don't know that Masonry is better or worse than those are. It is older. FWIW, I did learn mouth to ear and am a Past Grand Lecturer in Utah and a Senior Ritualist. So, my view of...

    One Day Masonic Class/Journey

    So, a foundation of Masonry is ear to mouth instruction and waiting between degrees? I don't accept that either philosophically or factually. In UGLE not just the lectures are written, but the entire ritual (but for the G and PW). In Utah the lectures are written and candidates are provided a...

    One Day Masonic Class/Journey

    I'm fairly familiar with the various lists of landmarks. I've never seen that one. Does TN still use the list of 15 Landmarks? Pretty sure that isn't in it. Indeed, my province of Cheshire, the oldest Masonic province, does not use mouth to ear. I doubt if we are in violation of a landmark...

    Navy or Coast Guard?

    <25 years active and reserve Navy. I served with the Coasties, and actually have a decoration from them. They are fine sailors and any sailor with a lick of sense knows that. We actually do cross platform assignments in support of their law enforcement role. Their young cutter officers have...

    Texas Grand Chapter/Council... Anyone else going?

    I had it blocked out, as the GHP has been a mentor of mine, but I have to work and am taking off next Friday-Sunday for CBCS in Reno.

    Visitation between A.F.&A.M and F&A.M

    Still don't know what you're speaking of. Remember, not all obligations are the same. Perhaps you could refer me to the page of Duncan's which has the phrase you are thinking of. However, the phrase you mention is appropriate in the discussion, as that is the point: a determination as been...

    Visitation between A.F.&A.M and F&A.M

    I don't have that in my obligation and, if I did, I don't see what it has to do with not recognizing some jurisdictions

    New to the craft from oklahoma

    It is also known as a life member. I paid a lump sum of dues so that I don't have to pay annual dues.

    I'm a Perpetual Member of Daylight. I installed my father, Curtis Cook, in the East in that Lodge.

    An and for lodges which don't have this ceremony as part of their ritual? Are our members not entitled to your respect?

    One Day Masonic Class/Journey

    So, in jurisdictions such as UGLE that don't require this lengthy memorization, the members aren't entitled to respect? Hmm
