You would need to speak to the grand lodge of the country where you are. There is no standard set of rules for the entire world.

You now raise a different question. Your new question would be better directed at the grand lodge of the new country. Typically, you have to disclose the prior rejection.

Really, you need to follow up with the grand lodge where you petitioned and the men who signed your petition.

Great. Have they scheduled your Third?

Are we having fun yet?

Society is grappling with what “man” and “woman” mean. We are in a completely different mindset than 30 years ago. That is one reason GLs are looking at a definition. Not all of us who are EU qualified professionals agreed with the UGLE view. Note that Scotland has not accepted that view...

Not the issue at hand.

Congratulations.

You err. I criticised no one's faith. Yes, we are well aware of the Catholic Church position.

And yet, you just spoke critically of the faith of other masons, and did so in public, when you could have avoided doing so. The US GLs stuck with your GL, despite the shenanigans and the pall your members cast on us all. His -fact- was correct. And your GL has still not consented to the US...

It would, or, as a special interest lodge. This is a “service lodge” with a unique history. I attended there in January and March. http://www.militarymasons.org.uk/Lodge%20Pages/Navy%20Lodge.html

Ok. You beat me.

You thought this was about gays in the militany?

Navy Lodge 2612 in London is not a military lodge in that sense, but is limited to RN officers. One of the masters was stationed at NATO in Virginia during his term.

And thus I refuse to give any names or locations. If you live in the city but can’t find it, and it’s not publicly available, pound sand (some are available in the European conf of grand secretaries and grand chancellors). To continue the example, I received a request for information from...
