Sad but true. Their eyes might pop out if they find out modern masonry took much of its energy from the age of Enlightenment.
It would appear that the ebbs and flows of man affect masonry greatly. We all should have expected the Information Age would bring on another dark ages. Fear and ignorance appear to again be on the loose. I do not currently believe we can escape these chains without much disruption and bloodshed. True masonry could again face persecution and be forced underground. I just wish we had guarded the WEST GATE closer.
