Bro. Vincent you are a true master mason. A brother who studies deeply. Masonry should be proud to have brothers like you. You are my brother. A seeker of light and truth.

I appreciate that brother. But I am just a student just like you and the rest of the brothers that have joined the craft. PHA and MS alike...
There are some really knowledgable brethren here...trust me I've learned lol.
Your point about women is interesting though and I'm on the fence about it honestly, as it regards to today's masonry. I know there have been Queen Mothers, Devine in their own right. And were shown equal respect and honor amongst the nations they governed...
But atleast in Africa the boys are initiated separately into manhood away from the girls. I don't think this society of freemasonry is prepared to integrate women at this point. And I'm not sure its wrong. My question is, is the craft consistently creating ,good, intelligent creative, respectful men? We have figure that out first.
Because if it isn't, then bringing in women makes the situation that much more complicated.
Modern masonry is still grappling with recognition between PHA and MS GLs
( which is ridiculous) and then you want throw women in the mix and that is an instant combustible situation.
The life blood of mankind is through a women's womb. That is the Devine "black hole of life" and should be treated that way...
But I simply remain on the fence because part of me hears what you're saying and the other part says I really enjoy the fellowship of the brothers in the lodge and how we partake before, during and after lodge meetings.
It's not sexist at all to me... My wife likes to watch the Real House wives of Atlanta then get on the phone with her girlfriends to discuss it. I like going to the lodge to fellowship with the brothers. Lol, not exactly the same but I hoped you catch my drift...
I am a freethinking Master Mason my brother.
