My first-year philosophy text was titled "The Art of Thinking." I've always thought that was a pretty good definition.

It hasn't changed. You must repeat the Apostolic Creed and swear to defend the Christian religion above all others.
People need to remember that the York "rite" isn't a linear path like SR, it's a conglomeration of bodies. If you don't want to join Commandery, fine, but don't let it stop you...
They are completely different programs. One is a system, the other a conglomeration. Both offer food for thought and illumination.
There are numerous threads on this very topic.

At the risk of re-repeating myself; they drape us with a sash during the Orders. We should keep it and wear it over a black suit for meetings, etc.
There is not now, nor ever has been, anything chivalric about our uniforms.
There've been updates since Friday on this thread, but thanks for making sure we're informed...

If a man, especially a Mason, cannot control himself at the sight of a bared breast, he needs to be locked up. I have been in rituals where the participants were completely nude and no one got "uh...passionate." I would expect as much from my Brethren.
First question; I would excuse myself and leave. Second question needs to be answered by a Co or Femme Mason, but my question to you would be "who cares?"
