Two Things- Creed & Crescent
Jono,
I don't know the orignator of the Creed. I do know that most of it is "patched together" from long existing sources. I took a quick look at the 1992 History Book and found no mention of the creation of the Creed as a unique statement. In a "round about" way I think Jack Mason has to get some credit for the wording of the Creed. I do have a very vague memory of something about the Creed appearing on the old IHQ webpage years ago. It is also possible that the "Open Ritual" (I can't remember the exact title right now) booklet has something to say about it. Let's continue to look into this one!
And,
EM1843,
You make an excellent point about the nature of the crescent symbolism we have adopted. The waxing crescent moon fits our traditions perfectly.
Yours in ZAX,
Mike Raymond, Z-U Zeta
