    Is Christianity really compatible with Freemasonry?

    Okay, then, so it's the consensus of the "enlightened" that there actually are no standards in Freemasonry?

    Is Christianity really compatible with Freemasonry?

    Congratulations on deciding to resort to ad hominem when you fail to actually make your point in a way that is understood. You are free to now hurl more personal insults as a substitute for actually speaking plainly and actually stating your allege "point".

    Is Christianity really compatible with Freemasonry?

    So, just play paper dolls with the Landmarks?

    What is Kabbalah?

    Philosophy is what somebody ended up calling what a bunch of Greeks started in the pre-Alexandrian period. It was not about truth so much as about determining the proper way to live. Truth, on the other hand, was merely a tool to use or discard as necessary. Plato's Republic, for example, is...

    Is Christianity really compatible with Freemasonry?

    Perhaps not every would-be candidate is a man. Do you see where that leads?

    Did Jesus Die On Cross (BBC Four Documentary)

    If this is true, it is possible that God, who transcends time, sent the symbol of the Cross throughout the past and future to all time so that humanity would be ready for it.

    Did Jesus Die On Cross (BBC Four Documentary)

    Bulgakov was denounced quite strongly as a heretic by his own Church (which happens to also be my Church). As for looking into someone's eyes--that means nothing. A man has the power to harden his own heart and look to sin without Satan controlling him.

    How the united states government was organized

    As for "the results of there [sic] time", the "results" were the entrance of He who brought salvation to all the nations, so, I'd say it was a good thing.

    How the united states government was organized

    Sooooo, then, the USA parallels Israel up to 1787, then it stops. After that, it's the New Rome. Shades of late-night 1980s TV cable shows...

    Freemasonry and Hermeticism

    The alchemy I'm most familiar with is in the "Book of Quintessence". It's a manual on how to create high-proof ethanol, using high-falutin' language. It then gets into all the wonderful effects you will feel if you take it for various ailments. There was a good deal of that in the old...

    WORKING FOR GOONS

    When means become ends. This is what has been described. All these metrics were designed for the purpose of improving the end goal, which in this case is closing those sales and delivering the products. It would be like a laboratory ceasing to worry about publishing useful papers and just doing...

    What do masons do?

    I agree with mrpierce17, although I would say even more: Masons build. Masons build themselves, help each other build themselves, build communities, build, build, and build.

    Visitation between A.F.&A.M and F&A.M

    A piece of paper is, in the end, just a piece of paper, no matter how fancy.

    Visitation between A.F.&A.M and F&A.M

    It's very simple: If you want to visit, go through channels. That's what lodge secretaries are for. That makes any personal challenge simply pro forma.

    Visitation between A.F.&A.M and F&A.M

    And I could make up a group that hands out little certificates proclaiming every member a Senator of the United States of America. Doesn't make it truth.
