Present BOTA policy is to admit OTO members but ban them from holding positions of responsibility in BOTA -- or so I have been told by BOTA officials. OTO doesn't care one way or the other, except that BOTA is a good place to learn some Tarot, Gematria and a bit of Golden Dawn material. In other words, BOTA members are welcome in OTO, but OTO members might be advised not to mention OTO in BOTA settings. BOTA's rules appear to have arisen out of a situation where a BOTA member who was also an Associate OTO member wanted to be married in a BOTA ceremony. There was some difference of agreement over the language of the marriage vows. Seems an odd reason for discrimination. 93 93/93 Bill
