I was merely stating a fact as the issue was reported here. That they lost their recognition over rampant corruption stemming from mafia involvement. I'm actually very happy they solved the issue and regained recognition. I think you read a tone in my post that wasn't intended.

It's not a contradiction. It just isn't a thing. I'm not going to belabor the point. If you came here for specific information I think we can move past it and get on with more interesting discussions.

Glad to hear that. I guess they took care of their little mafia problem.

LoL yeah. He hasn't posted here in a decade and the first thing he does is try to chuck all the non Masons out!

We do not discuss anything that would be considered a Masonic secret or behind tyled doors. So no need to limit members here to only Masons. If you think this site violates your Ob. Then that's on you. Bye.

Whoa! Slow your roll, there. This forum is NOT only for Brothers. Anyone interested in Freemasonry who wants to discuss it regardless of whether they're a member or not is welcome here. Might want to dial it back.

I really only ever wore my name badge when attending Grand Lodge or visiting. The Brothers in my home Lodge already know who I am! :) Haven't bothered putting one on in a long time. Is a suit jacket without a breast pocket a new style? I think that would look very odd, but I am a bit of...

You cannot blame us for mistaking your opening post when you said, "...it seems I've been a solitary freemason for decades." And, as Brother Glen has stated, there are no metaphorical Freemasons. The only way one can call themselves one is to knock on the door of a Regular Lodge of Freemasons...

Welcome to the forum. We're happy to help you find the local Lodge where you live so you can petition to become a Freemason. But I must inform you that calling yourself a Mason without having been initiated into a Regular Lodge of Freemasons will not be well received by Brothers here. There is...

Repealed in 2010.

I see you're new here. Welcome to the forum. Why don't you make a new thread and introduce yourself.

I'm not sure your argument that the "more Light" from Freemasonry is kaballistic in origin because of YouTube research is as convincing as you think it is. I'm not saying it isn't, Brother. I'm merely saying that citing YouTube, where anyone can upload anything and nothing is checked for...

I get the exact same thing at my work. I have people who have access to the exact same information as I do but will routinely ask me for something. It literally takes them longer to find me and and ask me for the information. And I know for a fact that having to interact with me does not make...

Congratulations. What Grand Lodge are you joining?

So you edited your post after I responded removing the part I responded to so I look like the bad guy. Nice.

I see why you removed all of your old postings here now. Look, if you are going to make claims to know the true historical origins of the Craft, you should probably be prepared for Brothers to ask for the sources so we can see for ourselves the information you are using to come to your...

I'd be interested in seeing your citation list for this theory.

No worries. Lots of people lurk and just enjoying reading the posts. Welcome to the land of the posters.

Or, find this site and not be able to search here even for any mention of the country they are inquiring about. I get that language may be an issue, but I have to assume that people who don't speak English still use internet search engines. Sadly, the issue is far more wide spread. In...

This thread isn't offensive. What's offensive is when Brothers try to force esotericism into a Lodge that isn't interested in the study. The result almost always engenders bad feelings and push back against any esoteric study as a result. I love studying the esoteric aspect both with and...
