I've been reading up on the Rectified Scottish Rite. It seems just what I'm looking for. I'm a bit confused however. Some sources state that the Rectified Scottish Rite is included in Martinist Orders and others state it's under Masonic jurisdictions. Which is correct?
Is it offered to women in the USA?
Blessings and appreciation in advance.

The RER is a Masonic order and some Martinist Grand Priories do work it as well. Those Martinist orders which work the RER do offer it to men and woman equally, but only after years of Martinist study.

Thank you Invictus. Are you aware of an American Co-Masonic or feminine jurisdiction that offers this Rite?
I'm also deeply interested in becoming a Martinist.

I'm not - but that doesn't mean it isn't offered. I've sent a link to this thread to a Martinist friend in the Bay Area

Blessings and appreciation in advance. Did you tire of your Melcheezydick FB persona so quickly and decide to come back on here for another banning?

CIRCES International & Ordre Souverain du Temple Initiatique, while being mainly composed of Masons, is a non-Masonic Templar Order founded by Raymond Bernard, an extremely profound and fascinating mystic. The Current Grand Master of the Templars is renowned author Timothy Hogan, who received his lineage of Martinism directly from Papus' daughter-in-law. The OSTI contains Martinism and the RER/CBCS in the higher grades and is open to both men and women who are interested in spreading world peace and religious tolerance.

I wouldn't be suprised if Tim could trace his lineage directly back to Willermoz through his great great granddaugther in law!

Renowned because of his silent work or renowned because of his well advertised work? Bit of a misnomer to me being renowned whilst following in the footsteps of the Unknown! How does one marry those two things? "I have desired to good but I have not desired to make noise, because I felt that noise did no good, and that good made no noise." That is Martinism as it should be (IMHO) I may be wrong but its what I know and understand it to be

Pike would be considered racist according to today's standards..Does anyone acquainted with his writings or outlook believe that such a view is warranted or is just all hyperbole?
Remember, what truth is.

Hi peter2,
The contrast you make while topically provocative is ultimately meaningless because there can be no doubt that our generation is racist. A more accurate contrast might be to analyze each generation according to the degree of visibility of racism. Of course there are those in positions of influence who may believe that racism serves a greater purpose. Unfortunately, even though the science may produce dividends there are collateral ramifications to such an outlook.

I was annoyed at this semi-literate introduction to the CBCS.
Have a look at MMH where you will see the following:I have never seen that abbreviation, but it makes sense.I don't understand the inverted commas around élite, and I don't like the small M in Masonic.It is really short for Chevaliers Bienfaisants de la Cité Sainte, which is different.Those inverted commas are really getting on my tetons.Metaphorically just a handful.MasonsTBH, the inverted commas are starting to grow on me.NEEDS WORK!!
