Not every US state has the same requirements. Some petitioners are merely asked if they beleive in a "Supreme Being," while others are also asked if they beleive in an afterlife or the immortality of the soul.
Like any other organization, one can expect that lodges (and GLs) will be colored by the community in which they are situated.
