    There are no regular recognized Masonic Lodges in the UAE. Sorry. We cannot help you. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Not quite sure what you're asking here. Could you clarify, please.

    New transfer

    I'll add to what Mike said. A Master Mason can easily move to different Lodges or Jurisdictions. An Entered Apprentice is still tied to the Lodge where they began their journey. There are options to continue your progress, but they all begin with first contacting your home Lodge in OKC and...

    I ordered 2! These will make great gifts. I am very happy they revived the book club. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Greetings

    I'm sorry you are not getting any responses. Sadly, there is no "normal" the last year and many jurisdictions aren't meeting at all or under heavy restrictions. If your buddy you listed is a Brother of that Lodge, maybe he can reach out to the WM. Also, if you submitted three months ago...

    2020 in Masonry, One Review

    To clarify, I am NOT qualified to speak on the matter of PHA! Typing on my phone and accidentally made it look like i have an expertise that I absolutely do not. :D Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    2020 in Masonry, One Review

    Are you referring to the State PHA or the numerous ones that are questionable. The various PHA groups is a very confusing situation and one I am definitely qualified to speak on. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    2020 in Masonry, One Review

    Freemasons suffer from the same prejudices all humans do. We're raised (literally) in a specific group where our thought patterns are cemented as to what is right or wrong. By the time we are exposed to other streams of thought we are already taught to look at it through the lens of "my way is...

    2020 in Masonry, One Review

    You want black and white, clearly defined and universal definitions in an organization that was spreading via autonomous branches for who knows how long before even the first GL was formed. Good luck with that! Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Need answer

    We cannot help you in any way. There is no regular recognized Freemasonry in your country. Further, several of your posts raise serious concerns about your legitimacy, that you just wanted a job or a laptop or the Lodge there took your ID. There is no help you can get on this forum.

    We can try to answer your questions here but you cannot join Freemasonry through this forum. If you are in Malaysia, you need to contact the District Grand Lodge of Eastern Archipelago. https://www.ugle.org.uk/about-us/districts-groups/14-asia/107-archipelago Good luck on your journey.

    Masks

    I think your analogy is suspect since the VFW requires a membership as well and as far as know most of those posts have implemented a mask mandate. But I get your point, if the GM says to wear a mask, then we as Masons are obligated (literally) to follow his instructions and wear a mask. But I...

    Masks

    I think it depends on where you live and what the prevailing attitude in that area is towards the pandemic. Here in Florida everything is mostly open and people are getting on with their lives and not stressing over a virus with a 98.5% recovery rate. Especially with a vaccine being rolled...

    Yes. You read the title correctly! This book, more of a short story I think, popped up on my recommendations today and for $5 I couldn't resist...

    Skull and crossbones in S&C

    That's unfortunate. It's a powerful ceremony that makes a lasting impression on the candidate. But I am sure they have their reasons.

    Skull and crossbones in S&C

    For us it is mostly found in jewelry and such. Since we meet old style without an official lodge building, rather on the upper floor of a private dinner club, we don't have any of the normal trappings you see around lodges today. For any ritual items used during meetings or degrees, we use what...

    Skull and crossbones in S&C

    My EC Lodge still uses the symbol. I think it means more to Lodges that use a Chamber of Reflection. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
