    Freemasonry AS religion?

    While I have no idea why you went down this road, you have chosen the wrong definition for the suffix of ism. In this instance, it is a distinctive doctrine, cause, or theory, thus Gnosticism, the idea that only through attaining secret knowledge can people find their salvation and overcome the...

    Thinking? You give me far too much credit.

    Family Of Murdered Texas Mason Suing Lodge For Negligence

    “oriental and unamerican.” Now that is a tone of moral authority. You do get points for creativity, if not for an ad hominem response that fails to address the points made. Shall we leave it there, or delve further into issues of morality...

    No, that is not my position. Investigation is the role of police, and insurance companies. I don’t understand what is meant in the last sentence.

    Family Of Murdered Texas Mason Suing Lodge For Negligence

    If you did that in a lodge you should expect masonic discipline, a protective order, joinder in the law suit as a defendant, an additional cause of action against the lodge, and possibly a criminal charge. May I ask what you do for a living?

    Family Of Murdered Texas Mason Suing Lodge For Negligence

    So, the lodge didn’t “lose liquor,“ it just requires a license or server. If it was a frivolous suit, policy wouldn‘t need to change. One suspects it wasn’t a frivolous suit, if such a suit even occurred. What is wrong with those wives, other than now being widows, having their husbands...

    Who lost liquor as what thing? What wives?

    Good stuff, but let’s talk about that whole weight thang. :)

    Indeed, we do venerate you, but largely because of your age. :).

    Grand Lodge directive to violate Masonic Law

    As you gain experience, hopefully you will understand what you may have been taught. At this point you have hoodwinked yourself from receiving knowledge.

    Those aren’t parables. PC is an abbreviation. And I see no reason why onewould think it necessary to abbreviate.

    You have Saint envy. You know you do.

    "Grand West" - annoying use

    I think you win the Necro posting award: 13 years since the last post in the thread!

    Grand Lodge directive to violate Masonic Law

    I don’t doubt that you were, but you didn’t respond to either of my points. if something can’t be stated here, it shouldn’t be stated in an IM to someone you don’t know. The name of your ritual is not a masonic secret. It is right there on the cover. By the way, I think your jurisdiction is...

    Grand Lodge directive to violate Masonic Law

    How do you know that is in his obligation? in some rituals and grand lodges no candidate is hoodwinked after he is made a mason. May I ask which ritual you work?

    In Need of Advice...

    Most of that doesn’t make sense. I’ve never seen a ritual that has something I can identify as “PC and communities.” I don’t know what “inter take” means. When the gavel sounds, the WM is in charge. No one else. A PM has nothing to do with it. And getting the GM’s input while a lodge is in...

    Table lodge

    My prior post may have been too subtle. Why are you resurrecting discussions that died five years ago?
