- Crowley never received any degrees from "normal" freemasonry. To use their terms all the 33rd’s (He had 3, once in Mexico, once in France, and a last 33rd in England from John Yarker) Crowley received were from irregular Lodges.
- The Grand Lodge of England's refusal to recognize Crowley was one of the reasons he rewrote the O.T.O. 0-III rituals to remove the Masonic connections. Frater C.U.G. 17:47, 26 Jun 2005 (CDT)
