    The freemason movie

    I sure hope so Brother. However, there are times when I think a few of us were asleep when we heard and quoted a few of those obligations.

    The freemason movie

    They actually had the good Captain on film doing it back in the day of live TV. The others could also have had a "take" or two along the way. I strongly suspect that's not ALL they had to say either. o_O

    How Dark Were the Dark Ages?

    "I have already made up my mind so don't confuse me with the facts. <--- Sarcasm, in case you missed it.> The idea that we are mentally superior to humans who lived a few hundred or few thousand years ago seems like intellectual snobbery to me." I get it Brother. Nice point...

    How Dark Were the Dark Ages?

    Just think how much darker those days would have appeared to the huge number of people who live IN THE DARK today.

    Long Form v. Short Form Exams

    Brother Bill. I really don't know how you have the time for all those "ears full." Especially after the rebuttal ensues. :) Fact is, I'm smart enough to not fire you up again.

    Do you agree with the results of Annual Communications

    I do. But Wild Bill or Blake would banish me to the hinterlands. Of course, I do hail;) from Louisiana.

    Do you agree with the results of Annual Communications

    Check closer. They can be read, BLOW for BLOW. Summarized. Handed out to attendees of the meeting (printed copy) I believe I got that from the information exchange between GL and lodge secretaries from one of my lodge secretaries. That is, if my head is not as foggy as B Williams'.o_O

    Masonic training

    Very important thread. Great awareness Brethren. Each time I see a masonic moment concerning any part of the seven liberal arts and sciences every mason in the room gets up and claps. Paying bills and carrying on business is entirely over estimated!

    Canadian 2011-2012 Membership Statistics

    Per The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Texas committee report in December we lost 3,454 to death and brought in approximately 3000 in 2014. Nearly a wash with Canada's numbers. Both GLs have approximately the same number of members.

    Do you agree with the results of Annual Communications

    I was shocked to see reference to the MM degree in one of the readings this year. We were in a tiled EA lodge. Apparently the Brother who read the program missed the reference. Not sure if anyone else caught it (or was listening, frankly) as no one MADE A BIG DEAL out of it as is usually the...

    Hello from Western Australia.

    Welcome Chris. Get all the Sun you can take. It's headed back to my side of the Equator and I plan to keep it as long as possible. Good luck and learn everything you can. If you are SMART you will never finish learning along this path. May the GAOTU bless and keep you and all our Aussie...

    Texas aprons

    Here's a serious note to new Texas Secretaries. There are those of us who do not have legitimate Texas size personal aprons. Occasionally a new secretary will not look close enough. Consequently, purchasing the wrong apron size. It has happened, it will happen again. Just make sure you check.
