    Nuts and bolts of Texas Freemasonry

    Brother Lamberth, you didn't respond to this.

    Disappointed

    You got life in prison, and somehow it's "a stain on the organization" that you were expelled? You don't say what your felony was, but life in prison gives a pretty good hint. "Judge not, lest ye be judged" just means that we shouldn't hold anyone to a standard that we are not willing to be...

    Is there a specific color and styles for the Worshipful Masters hat.

    That Macoy hat I linked seems wider and flatter.

    Is there a specific color and styles for the Worshipful Masters hat.

    No, as you noted, my post was from eight years ago. I don't remember where I found it. But searching just now I found this one on Macoy: https://www.macoy.com/Masonic-Aprons/Masonic-Hats-Fezzes-Fez-Cases/Masters-Square-Hat-3406.aspx

    Freemasonry is banned in Saudi Arabia. We cannot help you become a Freemason in a country where it is banned.

    IS THIS EMAIL OFFICIAL??

    I doubt seriously that they would be using a gmail account. Looks like a scam to me.

    Having your light taken

    Since this is such an old thread, I probably already said this: If you see me on the street wearing a square and compass, or a Scottish Rite double eagle, what gives you the right to "challenge" me in any way? Unless I'm seeking admission to your lodge with no one to vouch for me, you have no...

    Lodge Room Etiqutte

    Yeah, if what you're asking is whether you can wear a 32° Scottish Rite apron in craft lodge, I would say that would be inappropriate. As for wearing a personally-owned Master Mason apron or Past Master apron, that would be up to the jurisdiction. Some are quite strict about aprons, others are...

    Masonic Apps

    I'm familiar with The Tyler's Place podcast. It's created by the Scottish Rite SJ in Washington DC. I subscribe so I get a description of each episode, but most often it's just someone reading an article from the Scottish Rite Journal (or the predecessor The New Age) so I rarely listen to it...

    Find my Grandfather and Fathers Freemason Membership.

    Contact the Grand Lodge of Florida for information about your dad. The Grand Secretary in most states is quite helpful in that regard. https://www.grandlodgefl.com/contact/ If you know what state your grandfather was a Mason in, look for that web site. Were your Rainbow and your mother's...

    Male and Female Grand Lodges Counter Misinformation With New 'Council for Freemasonry in England and Wales'

    I would tend to think that any foreign jurisdiction that has practices or rules that violate your obligation, that jurisdiction is unlikely to be recognized by yours. Unrecognized, therefor visitation not allowed. End of quandary.
