    Don't Hate Me But

    Eric, You seem to deeply want to join because you are curious but yet you are afraid of what you may find because of the things you have read on the internet. I can assure you there are more people on the opposite side who read these things written by Freemasons who were what we call fringe...

    The future of Freemasonry???

    Christian only lodges are a horrible idea. Who decides who is or isn't a Christian? Would you allow Mormons or Catholics? Many fundamentalists dont consider them Christians while they consider themselves Christian. I am a Christian yet practice tarot, alchemy and kabbalah. Would you...

    The future of Freemasonry???

    We do not need more members; we need more active members. A smaller highly active fraternity would be ideal. Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk 2

    Solicitation from the Grand Lodge of Texas

    wow, I have never gotten anything like that from the Grand Lodge of Hawaii that I know of, what does the Grand Lodge of Texas have to pay for to be 400k in the hole? Is building maintenance that much?

    Ed King

    While Bro. King could have put it to you a different way, I tend to agree with him in some ways. Your "choice" of a Tarot Deck as a holy book is questionable, a better choice would seem to be Corpus Hermeticum, I would have also disagreed with the choice of a tarot deck.

    Edict From Masonic Grand Lodge of New South Wales and Australian Capital Territory

    Re: Edict From Masonic Grand Lodge of New South Wales and Australian Capital Territor Just another example of the push since the 1950's to make Masonry purely a social club and strip it of any esoteric meaning. Might as well join Moose lodge or whatever if ideas like this one in Australia...

    The Term Freemasonry in Books Since 1800

    I was playing with Google's Ngram Viewer today and decided to see how the word Freemasonry fared in English writing since 1800. For those that are not familiar with the Ngram Viewer it is really simple and here is the gist from google: Here are the results It seems the height of...

    Edict From Masonic Grand Lodge of New South Wales and Australian Capital Territory

    Re: Edict From Masonic Grand Lodge of New South Wales and Australian Capital Territor How can you not discuss this in a Lodge? Why is he saying the very things that are in fact Esoteric are not? Esoteric is not recitation as most in Texas like to think. The things that he has labeled...

    Why no numbers?

    Hawaiian Lodges did have numbers under the GL of CA when they formed their own Grand Lodge they dispensed with the numbers. I have often been asked in the past by PHA Brothers how old is my mother, and I can't answer the question because I am a member of Hawaiian Lodge.

    Dressing Down And Blimping Up -- A Reflection of Freemasonry

    I said I wasn't going to say anything else but this just bothers me. This idea that dressing a certain way shows respect or disrespect is archaic and should have no place in our society. No one is disrespecting the craft by what they wear, they may be offending YOUR sensibilities but unless...

    Dressing Down And Blimping Up -- A Reflection of Freemasonry

    Brothers, I don't know why this subject ruffles my feathers so much but I will try to make this my last post on the subject. If we are supposed to be equals in the lodge including the officers; why does it matter what anyone wears? If you truly believe that a Brother who has gone through the...
