Gotcha. Not even sure what happens my his will be my first.

Congrats brother. Welcome.

Again these are specific Masonic authors views on the craft. If I may, Bryan and I sometimes have opposing views on masonry in general. His opinion is his, and I respect that. My opinion is mine, which I'm sure I can say the same for him. We debate quite a bit. But in the end, no matter how much...

NOT IN THE WRONG AT ALL! My brother, you have the absolute right to vote who YOU feel is right to hold a position in the Lodge, just as any other brother. The fact that he confronted you should tell you that the ballot wasn't anonymous When you are master, YOU are master. I believe in...

I think I'm gonna have to agree with Bryan on this one. Another note on Pike, the SGIG of the NJ was at odds with Pike throughout both of their time as SGIG's. Most of which had to do with the philosophies of Morals and Dogma.

I learned the majority of this from masonicinfo.com

This was a very confusing subject, but thanks to a few brethren here I've learned quite a bit about these bogus and unrecognized groups. Basically there's no international headquarter for freemasonry. The closest thing that would ever come to that is the UGLE. And even then they don't speak for...

A bogus order that claims to be masons.

Try contacting the GL of California if your having trouble. That's what I did, as there isn't a Masonic lodge in my town, so i contacted mu GL and got a hold of my lodge's secretary and sent him my contact info. Just another option.

Congrats Alex. I too feel great acceptance when I walk into my lodge. I also feel a great deal fellowship here on the Masons of Texas Forum.

I think securitiesnerd and Bryan both have very good points. Albert Pikes words were just that. His words. They in no way reflect the general consensus of Freemasonry as a whole. Same goes to any Masonic author on this subject. But Pike felt that in order to understand Humanity, you must go...

Welcome and congrats. The Scottish rite is a series of degrees one can achieve once they've been even raised to the sublime degree of a master mason. Starting with 4th degree all the way to the 32nd, each degree has a lesson to impart using dramas or plays to impart the lesson. The 33rd degree...

Look for a lodge in your area, and find out their contact info and the time they meet. Then show up before or after their meeting time. It's that easy!

Well put Ashlar.

Lol. This is what I hear. I do enjoy a good A nice OV but I think is be more interested in what's going on during the GL

So you making as assumption even though you never watch one second of either of them? The AA debunked actually cites every bit of material on there and is linked back to the producers website. For example he will be talking about some monument in S. America, and as he is saying a number will pop...

Most likely. It'll be my first if I do. I'd like to go, from what I hear its quite the good time

I am interested in the diffrences between prince hall and f&am Well the thing is, Freemasonry itself is an organization that's been set up so as to be tolerant etc. but MASONS are still people, who succumb to temptation just as any other human would. I think a good example would the...

Also keep in mind that some people aren't worthy of receiving the light masonry has to offer although anyone who believes in the GAOTU can join. Anyone eligible to become a mason and who goes through the degrees, can still walk out of the lodge and not gained a thing, or chooses to ignore what...

I am interested in the diffrences between prince hall and f&am From what I understand, the GLoTX and the MWPHGLoTX recognize each other, but don't have visitation yet.
