Monica the brethren have the best advice for you. If you want to be apart of a lodge you can, but as mentioned, you will not be recognized by the rest of the regular Masonic world. My advice: OES would be a great place to start. At least you would be recognized as legitimate. After that if you...
"Did you happen to check the year of the book? By the list it would be a book maybe 15-20 years old when PHA recognition was a new thing."
It was from July 2012
I'm wondering if it has something to do with the fact that there are already numerous men from different ethnicities already...
I apologize in advance for hijacking your thread, but since we are on the topic of PHA, I was at the lodge last night and happen to read the Tyler's list. For Prince Hall GL's all it had was the PHGL of Connecticut, PHGL of NY(I believe that it was NY) and PH GL of Ontario and jurisdictions. I...
There will most likely be a brother from your lodge who is in the chapter. If you ask him he will give you the necessary info. From my experience, the paper work etc is a similar process to when you first joined the lodge.
Bro. Vincent, you make very valid points. I'm not really aware of much African history with regards to freemasonry, only Prince Hall. Not saying there isn't, but could you provide some light on this?
I mentioned in my previous post about the thought process of some of these clandestine masons...
Id have to agree with bro. Neumann. I was invited to a couple regularity Facebook pages between PHA and clandestine masons. The majority of the "clandies" seem to have this "white men brainwashed those who are darker skinned" attitude. Just seems nonsensical.
"Before taking supplements, even meds prescribed by a doctor, I pubmed them. Many times doctors simply prescribe what the drug companies pay them to prescribe without regard to in-depth studies conducted on alternatives."
- That is what happens with GMO's. No in depth study is done, especially...

When I was in college for culinary, I had a few
Nutrition classes. Of course eating any of these isn't a direct cure for...
Bro. Byron Upton invited me to his Facebook debate group about Masonic regularity, and there are a lot of guys on there, mostly irregular or clandestine, who believe in mystic roots that masonry has to the moors. Same with Egypt as the home of Africans and the Royal DNA (this is a common...
"Not quite--it's the word for "lord", but not as people have restricted the word in the modern day. It's "lord" in the older sense, as "Lord of Somesuchtown". Thus, the "Ba'al" of the Old Testament was not a universal god but was merely the "Lord of" whatever local non-Hebrew town that the...
"This confuses Baal fire with bale fire. Bale fire is a word that comes to English from Sanskrit through Old Norse and it means a funeral pyre. Baal fire is a word that comes to English from Hebrew and it means any of the pantheon followed by the Hebrews before they converted after Abraham and...
There's always a meal after a meeting. But yes wear a suit, and just be yourself, and act natural. If your nervous, just remember every mason in that room has gone through everything you will be going through. Good luck :)
"Jesus was Jewish. The Old Testament can be supported, to a certain extent, through archeological artifacts. How about the New Testament? Honest question here, I have only found what my keywords on Google have provided."
- I like this.

Well I am not Jewish but have been trying to learn...
