    Riding the Goat today!

    Wow! What a night! Moving to the very core of your being. For any up and coming Masons, Watch out for that Third Step, it's a doozy! And new Picture/Avatar! Can any one see what I'm doing in this Picture? Hint, its very esoteric, and very subtle, but if you have read some of my other posts you...

    Riding the Goat today!

    Hello Brothers! I'm fairly excited today, I pass in my work and if accepted will be riding the goat today! (riding the goat is our Lodges euphemism for taking the 3rd degree). Wish me luck and a good memory!

    Balloting in an E.A. Lodge (Texas)

    I know here in Maine, all "business" is taken care of in either Master Mason Degree, or if any FC or EA are present, in the EA degree. FellowCraft degree is only for passing people to the degree of FellowCraft. That Being said I know and have witnessed things being left unsaid in an EA business...

    Does Purgatory Exist?

    my problem... My only problem with the heaven/hell logic is the "child paradox" of original sin. If an adult kills a baby/child and accepts Jesus as his lord and savior he goes to heaven, but the child, being to young to accept or possibly even understand the word of God, goes to hell. No...

    Papal infallibility

    Something... Something that I found that was interesting, the Pope is often called the "Vicar of Christ". Few people remember what the word "vicar" means. It mean stand in, substitute, or place holder. That means that the Pope is merely a stand in, a place holder for the one they call Christ...

    Table lodge!

    Just got back from my first Table Lodge (of instruction). Wow! What a good time! We celebrated our 150th anniversary, and honored " all those who have come before us". I would recommend anyone and everyone, if you haven't, get to a table lodge the first chance you get. There is a bit to...

    forget-me-not

    That is a really good question, but I don't have an answer to that one. I'm willing to bet the person who can answer that question, can answer why returning veterans are classified as a potential terror threat, along with gun rights advocates and people who believe in a smaller government...

    forget-me-not

    I felt it appropriate to add a few links to back up my claims. The German Enabling act of 1933 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enabling_Act_of_1933 The Missouri Information Analysis Center Report on Modern Militia Movements (claims such as supporters of 3rd party candidates, having a Christian...

    forget-me-not

    Brothers, a question ways upon my soul, and I wish to share it but I'm not sure of this is the right forum, so feel free to move it if needed. As some of you know, and some don't, the blue "forget-me-not" was claimed to be adopted by German Freemasons during WW2 to identify themselves to each...

    Women Freemasons

    well... Brother, I can pick up a Holy book and show you stuff you never even knew was there, and probably wouldn't believe it even with it right in front of you. I myself understand scripture in a different way. But here is not the place, feel free to private message though and we can go into...

    Women Freemasons

    sorry Let me preface this by saying I am in no way racist, and mean no disrespect in this post but feel I must speak on it. I find it a bit odd that a man of color is using the excuse that " they don't really want to be Freemasons, just equal to men" when the same exact thing could be said...
