1. What brings you to the House of Netjer at this time? [Please note that Kemetic Orthodoxy does not support membership for the shock value of an "alternative religion," those who wish to "prove something" to us or others, or those who believe conversion will enable them to "get even" with negative experiences in a previous religion. Consider this question VERY carefully.]

2. What do you wish to gain from membership? List your goals and interests.

3. What do you bring to Kemetic Orthodoxy, and to Netjer?

4. As an e-mail correspondent member, you will do much of your work independently, although you will have access to other members and priests at all times. What are your strengths and weaknesses in distance learning, and how might we better serve you spiritually even if you are unable to have physical contact with other members on a regular basis?

5. Please detail previous spiritual and/or religious experiences (religions you belonged to, why you left them, what they taught you, what you could do without). All experiences help bring you where you are today. Are you a better person because of these experiences? How do you understand Kemetic Orthodoxy as part of your spiritual process? If you were to convert fully to Kemetic Orthodoxy, how would your relationships with these religions change, if at all? An Important Note: Full conversion to Kemetic Orthodoxy is ONLY required of members who take a vow to the Order of Shemsu-Ankh. All Kemetic Orthodox, even Shemsu-Ankh, can practice any faith of their choosing, as well as interfaith and cooperative religious work; what changes upon Shemsu-Ankhhood is a vow to serve Netjer and Netjer's people as one's first religious priority. Setting aside previous religion(s) to convert to a new one does NOT negate that experience, nor should it require renunciation of previous experiences. Kemetic Orthodoxy will never require a person to renounce previous religions or teachers, and we do not declare that our religion is the "one true way."

6. Are you prepared to learn about and potentially join a fairly conservative religion, having both a strict ethical code and a hierarchical structure? Are you prepared to have your ideas challenged as you learn and grow in a religion which has been misunderstood for a very long time?
