    Who can propose resolutions to the grand lodge?

    Can only Past Masters propose or any Master Mason in good standing? (Please keep this thread in the Sanctum, I will elaborate more at a later time, Thanks)

    Spiritual Atheists?

    Here's my opinion, I'll try not to use very many five dollar words. An athiest believes in no form of diety. They understand this earth, the heavens and all things was created without any divine creation. When they die, they just die. No spirtual ascending or descending. To ne it's a sad way...

    Codebooks for Non-Master Masons

    I guess I'm not part of the majority. I do own a monitor. I got it after I was raised. I don't think a monitor is any where near to a cypher book.

    Codebooks for Non-Master Masons

    Well said!!! As far as I know there were no code books around when I learned all of my work (1992). I wasn't involved with Masonry for a long time. When I finally started to come back to the Lodge, I noticed how much was stilled stored in my repository. I joined the York Rite almost a year...

    Making a mason at sight

    I was told that Mark White (pass TX Govr.) was made a Mason at sight. Personally I don't think that soeone's notarity should allow this to happen. When it comes to our freedom fighters, a case to case basis should be considered.

    TOTALLY AGREE!! Better yet, for the right amount of money anyone can but their way in. That's problem with today is that everything has to be right now whether it's deserverd or not.

    Are their any non-Christian appendant bodies for our wives?

    As far as I know, the only Christian Masonic women group is the Social Order of the Beauceants. O.E.S. should be the same as the blue lodge.

    Membership Statistics

    Then how can a new member say "just as all worthy brothers have done, who have gone this way before me". I don't understand how making Masonry shorter can make it better. I would rather see the Fellow Craft degree work be more detailed. The time in between degrees should go back to 28 days...

    Question about the work...

    Our work shouldn't be learned "fast paced". I promise if you learn the work the way it suppose to be, you will have no regrets. your lodge shouldn't have a problem requesting a special dispensation. They understand life happens. Remember the 24" guage. In the long run if you decide to learn the...

    Christianity and Homosexuality

    The advocates are in denial!!! without heterosexuals, gays would not exist.Afterall they cant reproduce. We now live in world where no one is wrong and feelings can't get hurt. When the day of judgement comes apon us, God will not be politically correct.

    Something to think about

    I have heard from time to time that the Tiler of the Lodge does not have to be a Mason. The reason is that he never sits in the Lodge during labor. If this is so, what is done when asked his place about the Lodge? A non Mason shouldn't be taught that right? More Light on this subject please!!

    Most Asked Question as a Mason

    The taking over the world thing is pretty funny. Even my wife is tired of hearing that one. She says, "I wish yall would hurry up and take over, this place is going to hell in a handbasket". Masons running the world, it's hard enough to decide what to put on the menu.

    Lodge Meals II

    Every time the doors are open there's some kind of meal. Study night usually sandwiches. Stated, degree, and C&C some kind of hot meal. Somebody always brings a dessert. Every now again the ladies will have a "feed the Masons night". The past couple of times, I 'm showing up late.No requirement...

    Is one lodge better than another?

    As long as they are recognized by the Grand Lodge of Texas. I you don't mind me asking, what are the names of those lodges by you?

    Our dirty laundry...

    Very shameful. Masonry does not need this type of publicity. How easy it was for these men to forget their obligations.

    Age 18?

    We just had an EA on an 18 yr old last Thurs. I was on the investigating commitee, we made sure told the young man how serious our fraternity was. We made sure he wouldn't crack under any peer pressure. I understand the going to war and voting when you turn 18. Maybe a canidate needs to at...
