    Participating on Discussion Forums

    These days it's mostly here. In the past, I've posted on a lot of non-Masonic forums and even ran one or two.

    What was your first position?

    It's always interesting hearing the differences between Grand Jurisdictions like the Assistant WM and no Deacons. As for the progressive line, I agree that advancement should not be an automatic. I think a few lodges have gotten themselves in trouble by advancing someone who has not shown a...

    leonard d. blanchett

    Do you know what local blue lodge and Eastern Star he belonged to? If he was a Shriner and lived in Dallas, that would most likely mean he was a member of the Hella Temple Shrine. If you contact them they could help you some and it would give you a starting point. From there I'm sure they...

    Teen Mom 2

    My fiancee is already tired of my telling her who has the #1 Children's Hospital system in the world every time a St. Judes commerical comes on.

    The Most Impressive Home Theater in the Entire Star System

    I've already been told I can not incorporate something like this into our remodelling plans. I am being bought off with a new 60" LED TV though.

    Women Freemasons

    The bigger question is how do you recognize a co-masonry lodge if by the very definition it violates the landmark of being a man?

    Regarding Your Masonic Membership

    The formation of Freemasonry and Texas went hand-in-hand. The Republic of Texas had 4 Presidents before Texas became a state. All 4 Presidents and the Vice-Presidents were Masons. Most weren't just Masons, but the Masons who in addition to forming the Republic, also formed the Grand Lodge of...

    Regarding Your Masonic Membership

    At one time we needed to maintain our secrecy due to many of our members speaking about such subjects as Freedom of Religion and Self-Government. In many countries centuries ago, these were serious crimes.

    Lodge vs. Church

    IMO, church is a place to go to worship God. But the church isn't the only place one can go to worship God. I do regularly go because I like many of the people there and my fiancee likes to go. I was raised Southern Baptist, but I find myself parting more from that docterine and following my...

    Hello to everyone

    They are correct to warn you about such things. I know here in Texas there is an organization called the Regular Grand Lodge of Texas, which is not recognized by the UGLE or the Grand Lodge of Texas. But also, even on here someone claiming to be a Mason might not be on the level. In the...
