Just curious how you saw politics and religion in this thread. How does your jurisdiction draw the line on what constitutes these topics to avoid in open Lodge.

Saw this on Rocky Mountain Mason this morning and had to laugh. Having been one of these poor underappreciated Brothers!

Welcome from a Wisconsin ex-pat living in Florida!

Many of us in this group, myself included, have Masonic tattoos. But my advice here, I'm not sure using Masonic symbols as "filler" for a tattoo is the way to go. If you're going to indelibly inscribe them onto your temple, wouldn't you rather that each emblem have a specific meaning or reason...

Since Shawn necroed this thread I'll chime in. I quit the Reddit r/Freemasonry because of the rampant hypocrisy. In the same discussion talking to potential members the posters, supposedly Freemasons, will also have profanity laced discussions comparing genitalia or other such nonsense. I made...

Outstanding! Glad to hear that. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

So that's set at the national level. Be a shame to preclude a potential relative because of wording. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

Just got mine. Haven't had a chance to peruse it yet. Hopefully this weekend. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

Surely the OES membership requirements are spelled put in the Code for your GL. What does it say? If not there then they have to be stipulated somewhere. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

I see what you mean now. We have the same situation in my GL with the Wisconsin Masonic Center in Madison Wisconsin managed by a foundation now. But when they needed money to shore it up they just added a tax on everyone's dues for a few years. I'm still annoyed that vote passed. lol

In the US Grand Lodges I am familiar if a group is formed and it is required for the membership to be Masons then the GL has jurisdiction over that group. Belonging to a group of Masons that have legal duties that conflict with the GL would never fly here. Though that does imply some type of...

You have a few things going here. The poll and the request to discuss Masonic charges as well as harassment. Let's take them in order. A dictatorship is where one individual or a small group exercise power with no constitutional limitations. As the Master is elected for a specified period of...

Tell us where you are located and we can maybe direct you to Masonic resources in your area.

You would start by contacting the local Lodge to express interest. If you do not know where that is start with the Grand Lodge of SC. https://www.scgrandlodgeafm.org/ Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

Some of these appendent bodies and clubs forget that they are subservient to the Grand Lodge and their laws. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

Non of Dan Brown's books were well represented, in my opinion, on the screen. They just didn't translate well. With so much of the exposition in the novels that made them enjoyable being carved away for their screen adaptations they were just not enjoyable for me. But the Peacock adaptation of...

There is no set timetable. It all depends on connecting with one or more Freemasons in that area and then probably however long it takes them to get comfortable with you before they introduce you to the Lodge. If you are looking for a quick entrance to Freemasonry there you will most likely be...

This is only the first of likely to many difficulties you will face as you try to join an organization that is seen by many governments in that region as a subversive Zionist plot. But if it is something you genuinely want to do then persevere and understand that the process will take time. It...

Regularity and recognition absolutely matter if for no other reason than to protect potential candidates from falling prey to the many organizations that call themselves Freemasonry but are actually little better than money making schemes for unscrupulous individuals preying on the those who do...
