Timucua Indians worship the royal coat of arms set up by French Huguenot explorers at Ft. Caroline (vicinity of St. Augustine), Florida, 1564:

Why does this seem an apt metaphor for the AHS?

Joe,

Perhaps the AHS ought to appropriate the image and include it on the home page!! http://americanheraldry.org/forums/images/icons/icon12.gif

I’m not sure that posting on the web & forking over $20 a year constitutes "worship"—don’t think that my pastor (or Guy’s) would settle for that as sufficient worship…

But the image is striking!

Well, I would agree that "stewardship" may not be our greatest strength, but we do have dogmas, the questioning of which often provokes heated discussion, accusations of heresy, and (in some other heraldic groups) even schisms.

You forgot to mention attempts to exorcise American armigers of demons which cause them to throw themselves (and wallets) at the alter of foreign granting agencies and fake orders.

I am very gratified to find this thread: thank you Joseph.

 

The stewardship has gone way over the top in my view, and as I’ve said before, many do agree with that sentiment.

We read that heraldry is treated [seriously] in only a few countries today: by that I mean the ‘stewardship’ by an authoritative body that ascribes a framework and or legal boundries.

 

It would be very nice if those who share this opinion would make it noted in other communications.

 

It’s about time really.

When compared to the violence and oppression that has accompanied the world’s religions, the (benign) worship of heraldry would be a great improvement in the civilisation of humankind.
