Remember, my brother, it is the internal and not the external qualifications that matter. Your thoughts are conveyed, and even though they may simply look different in print, the meaning is still there and can be understood by those willing to listen.
It is usually a sad thing when someone is banned, however in this case it is for the best. He has an agenda and a mindset that will not be changed. I may not agree with his literal views, but I do wish him well just the same.
No, you are not a them, as the pronoun you is singular. The them refers to you AND the other 3 members of E511. Collectively the four of you are a them. Since all of you were discussing the topic....simple grammar. But don't forget rhetoric, and logic as they are needed as well.
I take it by the question, you have not been raised yet, so I will only say this, "Wait and see". Listen to the entire degree and you will find your answer. To give you an idea, think about the EA and FC degrees and the legend behind our fraternity. I will say that the memorization that you...
A case in point where you only pick and choose. The actual quote was
So yes, "them" is accurate. Meaning you AND the other anti's at E511. Don't trip on your back peddling.
This is something the profane cannot fully understand through reading. They can read all the works by all the authors out there, but all that reading will not gain them the full understanding of what the Fraternity is REALLY about. It doesn't work that way, and was never designed to work that way.
And why is it that you decline? Is it that you did not truly get them in the manner that you described? Must be, because if you were truly the upright person you try to claim you are, you would honor my respectful request. And, by the way, you have yet to see me angry. Anger is an emotion...
Please provide me, through a PM, with the contact information of the person you obtained the NY materials from. As a MM in a lodge under the jurisdiction of the GLoNY, I have every right to know sold you those items so that I may investigate further. You personally, as a non-mason, do not have...
Skip - The only way you could have gotten a monitor and ritual from GLoNY is if you were in fact a Mason. These items are intended for and provided to Masterr Masons in the NY lodges. The only person who is authorized in a Lodge to request such items is the lodge Secretary. GLoNY does not...
Not so. You did not do the work to be entitled to own the materials. Submitting a request to a GL for materials intended for Master Masons only proves you to be nothing more than an eavesdropper and in my book that makes your word worth precisely squat. And, at least in NY, you need to...
Skip - You are relying on not only outdated material in some cases, but it is material that you are not rightfully entitled to have in the first place. In closing, all I will say is you need to put aside what you have been fed by your E511 and EMFJ buddies if you want to truly learn what...
