Point within a circle is one of my new favorites after reading "Building Hiram." It really made sense to me when compared to a certain part of the degree when the candidate is brought to light, but I had no idea it was Egyptian. Now another layer will have to be researched. My real favorite is...
A great place to eat is at Twisted Root. Lots of different style hamburgers and I'm pretty sure it was on the Food Network show Diners Drive-ins and Dives. Kind of a hole in the wall place, with a good atmosphere. Not sure of the exact location, I only stopped there once.
I think there is a lack of discipline and respect in general. I recently watched the SW and JW texting non stop during an EA degree. I was disappointed and embarrassed. That is a moment the candidate will remember for a long time and he deserves the best degree possible, not to mention he paid...
Bro Coach N,
Not sure if you can elaborate more on this forum, but your statement made me think for some time.
"At the same time, these rituals are full of purposeful inaccuracies, strategic red herrings and contrived misdirections, designed to reveal only to those who are worthy and to...
From my experience, and this is mainly from being in the military for the last 13 years, I'm more concerned with the amount of countries, groups, and people who would like nothing more than to wipe us off the face of the Earth. The balance between national security and individual freedoms are...
Looks legit from the letter at the bottom of the page that you can view. I've heard grumblings here and there that the Shrine in general has been throwing around the idea of not requiring Masonic affiliation to become a Member, so maybe this won't come as a surprise that both parties did not...
Have they claimed to be a part of another Masonic organization, or are they using it as a marketing tool? I noticed Jay Z has a clothing line out with the S&C on it.
Masonic Education, brotherhood, or camaraderie between like minded people are non existent in most lodges I have visited or heard of. Those are some of the things I crave in masonry, but have not yet found. I know the lack of masonic education is a major gripe between most new MM. My views...
Waiting just makes it better. Plus, it's written in a way that makes more sense once you have gone through the first 3 degrees. Trust me, it will mean more if you do. Let me know when the day comes, it will be an interesting conversation when you finish the book. Also, it's an easy read, may...
I probably wasn't clear in my statement, and was trying to water it down. I've seen it be more than just a heads up, "hey, you may want to check out the other Lodges." It's more if a foot stomp, wink wink, we'll call you don't call us situation. Sorry if we are off topic. I forsee this being...
I look forward to the day this actually becomes a reality, and not just another example of "do as I say, not as I do." I read and hear a lot about how we as Masons should never judge someone based on external qualifications, but I've seen mainstream and PHA both tell potential candidates they...
