Because that is not all that is required, in fact a dues card isn't even required anywhere in the Constitution except under article 380:which says:
Upon notification to the Worshipful Master, and at his discretion, a member of a Lodge under the jourisdiction of this Grand Lodge may visit...
This is a subject that has always bothered me, not on a racial basis, but just on the grounds that slavery of any kind has no place in the country that most of us live in or in the entire world for that matter. I am thankful to all of you for voicing your opinions and discussing the tough...
Article 223- Necessary Paraphernalia for Lodges in Texas ( item 17) Requires that each Texas Lodge have a small Bible for an Examining Committie. Other then that I am not aware of any other guide lines for determining if a brother is worthy to come inside or not. In years past, I have seen G&Ws...

Other....... Perhaps in or by another name, but the principals that we believe in, have been handed down from time well before the first building made of stone or brick. Perhaps since the beginning of humankind its-self. Who passed on the concept of God or Supreme Architect ? I suspect that our...
Welcome to our boards and to our fraternity. If you can maintain your present level of enthusiasm, I have no doubt that your presence and membership will strenghten our ranks. I suspect that your fellow brothers of # 1110 are already proud.
