does Mark Masonry require any religious test beyond what the Craft requires

Mark Masonry requires no additional religious qualifications or tests beyond the standard requirement of belief in a Supreme Being shared across Freemasonry, as the Grand Lodge of Mark Master Masons of England and Wales and its Districts and Lodges Overseas notes. Under that jurisdiction, the sole qualification for admission to the degree of Mark Master Mason is that of being a Master Mason. Across Freemasonry more broadly, membership brings individuals together irrespective of race or religion, requiring only a belief in a Supreme Being or Almighty God, as the Grand Lodge of India notes.

The sacred text placed upon the altar for obligations is the Volume of the Sacred Law appropriate to the candidate's own religious faith, which is deemed binding upon his conscience, as an article on the Grand Lodge of India's website records. Rather than specifying a single uniform text for all candidates, the practice aligns with the candidate's personal faith, ensuring that the obligation is taken upon the scripture he holds sacred.
