    Answers to your Catholic Questions

    I know that you did not intent that, but I felt that another persons was trying to back you into a corner about your beliefs, and as a Freemason we should not tell other Masons (and I hope one day you our that and I can call you a Brother ) what is right when it come to God.

    Till you become a mason, please don't tell me what it is to be one. You have a lot to learn, and you seem to be missing the lessons that others here have tried to explain. Begin a Mason in the end is about respecting you're follow Brothers and you have show little of that in this forum.

    self expulsion in Arkansas

    Demitting would be to leave your lodge, if you move and want to join a new lodge and not pay dues to two lodges you would demit for one lodge.

    self expulsion in Arkansas

    The question I have, other than Ark. every Shriner needs to be a MM, So how many members of the Shrine are not MM? It seems in Ark. most have left the state and joined GLs bordering states.

    self expulsion in Arkansas

    I don't see how a Grand Lodge could not let a member demit. If this is true this is a classic example of the Grand lodge over stepping it's due bounds, and if true it seems like it is always the same ones (GL) doing it too.

    Having your light taken

    Yes it is a crime and someone could get hurt, in the end what is the person trying to prove. I'm smarter than you. I guess in the end the are not meeting on the level or parting by the square.

    A Few Questions

    You need to believe in a Supreme Begin/Power how you define it is up too you, Masons do not care how you believe on Politics but you can't not be radical and must support the laws of your country, a Mason Bible is the Same thing as a King James Bible. How young are you talking about, lodges will...

    It all depends on where you are getting it from, if you order online other than chain stores( Best buys, BJ, ect) don't order from anyone other than B&H or Adorama. Much of the online cameras is a scam.
