Degrees are for communicating our dedication to outsiders.
Ranks are for communicating our experiences among ourselves.
Can understand you, but why would the temple make systems for outsiders only? Does not sound logical..

Because no matter how many people forget it, or how many people downplay it, or how many people pretend it isn't, TOTJO is a religious organization, and degree systems exactly like our own have been utilized by religious organizations since the dawn of higher education.

D.Div has more or less been scrapped, and M.Div has been suspended for a long time now
I find the system that we are left with very simple and non-confusing:
Knighthood = half a degree (A.Div)
Senior Knight(hood) = a whole degree (B.Div)
Pretty straightforward, right?
Mm.. I made this split of after the faq post.. I can not find something about a half degree in the faq? It confuses me. :dry: Tried to bring up a old idea, but that seems to be not so good of me..
