That makes sense...

If i am buddist, i don't care about what the pope says,

if i am a christian i don't care about what the high priest of the hindus says...

I guess i am just expanding upon your post... i don't really have much else to add

I am amazed at the knowledge you people have of certain things. A person could just read all day. At one time I only respected one belt system. Over time I realized I only respect the way one might obtain a rank.

That's a good point. I think that it comes to the point that these higher dan rankings and titles are usually only made by appointment. They come so late in one's life/career that physical assesments aren't going to be as easy to do as they were when one was young. Perhaps the major issue is if the rank is more like a political appointment then something that is really earned through time and devotion.
