We as Free-Masons have no business asking what church you attend.

We have no business asking one about his religious belief. That is between the man and his creator.

We must have the required volume of the scared Law in our lodges to obligate candidates by. If we don't we should ask the candidate to bring his scared law with him or if he wants to be obligated upon the charges we should do so.

Alabama ritual along with many other jurisdictions has become Christian only in style and in many Alabama Lodges its fundamentalist Baptist.

Supreme being is the ONLY question that should be asked nothing further. The Master of the Lodge should privately ask the petitioner if he has a volume of scare Law that he prefers to be obligated upon he should be afforded the opportunity to do so.

I asked the GM of Alabama about the term we use "The Holy Bible" and what would be the correct thing to do if the person was Jewish, Muslim etc, etc. He stated"I don't know."

That is a major problem with the " antient" Lodges and jurisdiction they don't know anything except what they do use as ritual today which is totally based upon Christianity period.

So in Alabama if your Black and not Christian you don't fit in.
