Brothers,
I am putting together (or refining) a plan for next year, as I will (potentially) be sitting in the East. I was wondering if Brothers here could share examples of some programs (educational or otherwise) done at actual Lodge meetings that they have enjoyed or would like to see. To...
Brother, I think that we have found solid agreement here. I learned early on that “My Masonry” was not necessarily the Masonry of all of my Brothers. I spent a fair amount of time initially trying to show my Brothers what they were missing in the areas “claimed to be in darkness”. I soon...
I am glad we can agree on that.

Brother Blake,
This is your forum and you are ultimately able to do whatever you deem appropriate, however, it would seem to me that calling the banned poster a liar, claiming that his VSL was written by a demon and then claiming the Pope to be irrelevant would be equally ignorant, inflammatory...

Separately I was really taken by the quote above as it is something that is so blatantly true...
First of all Brother, very nice paper. I agree with Brother Cog that the vast majority of violence is driven by “greedâ€, or perhaps a step further by “powerâ€. If we are to look at the Crusades, can we say that those actually committing the atrocities were gaining power, perhaps not, but...
I think the answer to this question can vary depending upon your definition of “our form of Masonry”. If you are speaking of the organization of Freemasonry, then I believe Brother Maloney to be correct on what is the assumed timing of the formation of Freemasonry in England. “Masonry” in a...
The political landscape has become increasingly hostile over the last few months. Presidential debates are airing. Campaigning has begun on issues covering everything from school levies to the presidency. To the surprise of none of us, a majority of these ads, signs and speeches are infested...
My Brother-in-Law is now relocated to Austin. He developed a game that can be downloaded from his website here: http://www.foomunda1.com/om.html
Any help making connections is really appreciated....
Fraternally,
Jason
