When it comes to alcohol the Grand Lodges need to start treating it's members like man, no where ever did it stat in the old charges that a man can not have alcohol.

So let me ask this than if you get ride of all the other rites, but keep the Blue Lodge, would you still not have Freemasonry? Now let switch this, you keep all the other rites, but you do away with the Blue Lodge you would have nothing.
Re: What would you recommend as a first reference
What they did was drop it down to a EA lodge after the opening, than they had you leave to close on the third degree. As a EA in some Grand Lodges they will let you set in on meetings but you can not vote. But to answer your question I read...
