I remember some pretty terse conversations in the 1990-2000 on Usenet and Csevre and Prodigy and yahoo. I view it as a volume and anonymity function now.
Like you, I post with my pic and ten clicks you can find all about my Masonic and professional life.
UGLE is most short form: about 11 questions with the deacon in your ear to help. Utah is long, and even requires proficiency for the Master. I've never had the sense that English Masons feel short changed, unless it is the Scots buying the next round.
I like the clever comparison, but bridle at the suggestion that God had anything to do with founding Freemasonry. And, your definition of freemasonry as male only is not one that all accept, as the discussion shows. However, this won't stop me from using the second clause as a quip!
Usually this would not be a GL matter. If your individual lodge culture promotes putting oneself forward, it is not my place to gain say that. I would urge caution and modesty, though, until you do know the culture.
I don't wish to nit pick on a worthwhile topic, but may I note my concern with the concept that one would "seek" an officer position? Surely one waits for the worshipful master to exercise his right to select such officers as he in his discretion believes appropriate.

However, the "by extension" argument is not well laid. UGLE and Texas don't rec the same Italian GL.
In my experience in mental health law, ADHD is not always well diagnosed or very casually diagnosed. I would not rely upon a GP diagnosis. Even the Wender is subject to bias.

The rule: check to see who your GL recognizes.
And ask your jurisdiction's web master to publish the list online. For California I had to login to the members only area and download the Proceedings book for search for it. Very far from an obvious loc.
I was unclear. I was speaking to the...
As a PG Lecturer I'm impressed.
When I learned my English Lodge and Chapter ritual, a great deal was done driving the eight hours to the meeting. Luckily, it was all clear text, as are the appendant orders in which I now work.
OK took the "recognition without visitation" step first as well.
I understand emotionally the desire to bring to heel the recalcitrant jurisdictions. However, having seen the the fallout over the NY-DC 2008 suspension of recognition iover Lebanon, there are innocent brethren effected and it...
How do you learn the opening and closings for Coumcil and Chapter and your part for those degrees as well as your SW degree parts and WM for next year (particularly the G lecture)?
No. Many State GLs recognize PHA GLs without their jurisdiction.
A State GL would not recognize a foreign PHA GL not in amity with its own State GL counterpart because of that lack of recognition. It has nothing to do with UGLE. Utah extended recognition to PHA NC before any UGLE action. It...
