I know how its spelled, I use the talk text so I don't have to type all the time
Just for the record, the word is spelled catechism.
LA mason, that's exactly what I was referring to brother. The thing is, those questions were used in a time when a lot of Prince Hall masons were not proficient at reading. That's why I said if a guy came up to me with "street masonry" I would want to verify his membership.
Glad we agree that you are about "upmanship, and silly questions"
Thx LAMASON for putting that proof of unmasonic acts and with this guy (traveling man91) so brotherly agreeing that he was talking about doing these actions. My point is made!

So, the purpose really isn't to determine if he is a Mason, just to embarrass him?I read catch a kisms as...
Saying a part of a chetichism to see if you can CATCH him not knowing.

Depending on the ob. Mine does not have that requirement.You speak on Prince Hall masons as if you have a problem with it. Any brother regardless of mainstream or Prince Hall that makes sure a brother is who he say he is is keeping his OB.
Inappropriate and untrue. I think the challenge questions rather juvenile as well, but really, the only reason PHA not recognized by its state GL counterpart is racism.Thats why we don't recognize prince hall, always trying to challenge and prove something (not all)

Is this the spelling your GL uses for catechism?Read your MM OBLIGATION. Traveling masonically means visiting other lodges.
As you say "catch e kisms" means challenging them with a part of your CHETICHISM to see if he gets stuck.
Keep your CHETICHISMS in lodge or for INSTRUCTION of a brother.
I speak the truth and give reality. Im not a ring tapper looking to be recognized so i can gain respect or see if the person im talking to deserves my respect.

My ob. says I don't converse on the secrets of Freemasonry. I do not do so on the streetBro. Glen Cook it speaks on not holding Masonic conversation unless you know him to be such.
I didn't say the book was for PH. Rather, use of the book's title to refer to challenge questions I have not heard of outside of PH. Thus the questionI don't believe the book is just for Prince Hall. I own this book and it says no where about Prince Hall. As a matter of fact, I have heard mainstream masons use these questions as well.
