My bumper sticker says: "Freedom of Thought, Religion and Conscience. Freemasonry its not for Everyone."
We are supposed to be pillars of the community. Does that not require the elite?
Or at the very least, aren't we supposed to be seeking light in order to travel towards perfection?
I've heard some members bemoan the fact that we don't have more Doctors, Lawyers, and Community leaders within our ranks, to me that smacks of elitism.

Leave the elitism to the Country Club, they can have the doctors and lawyers and all of their money and prestige, Masonry is about taking good men and making them better whether they be a corporate executive or a street sweeper.
I don't believe that a high powered college degree or a big bank account makes a man a better candidate for Freemasonry and it is very unmasonic to think that way.
Travelling Man, my last post came across too harsh and for that I do apologize, after reading your last response I fully understand what you were driving at. Great job of standing up to that misguided Pastor.
No foul, no harm. It's all in the art of conversation!
Not so fast brother! I thought we caught the paster "hand checking a little too closely."
No foul, no harm by chadwalker67, not the Pastor, he received his comeuppance!
