Arbitration Committee Election 2017 candidate: SarekOfVulcan

If there are any questions regarding his neutrality

Some of you might have questions about how this individual might deal with matters related to Freemasonry and related topics. Frankly, that morass would try the patience of a saint, given the multiple internal and external sources of extremely dubious reliability on it. I have had contact with him regarding that issue for several years and can honestly say that I (a Catholic, and as such presumably one of Freemasonry's most ardent opponents) have never had any reason in my eyes to question his being able to deal with the topic fairly. In fact, I can even specifically remember an instance or two when he actively criticized other Freemasons here for indicating that their masonic oaths took priority over our policies and guidelines. Honestly, and anyone who knows me knows how freakish it is for me to say this, given a choice between trusting him and his judgment of content and the sources of that content, I think he has demonstrated to me more than once that one this topic I should probably trust him and his judgment more than my own.
