    Exorcism

    What's your opinion of Exorcism? Are people actually possessed by Demons or is it more of a mental health issue?

    Getting a smartphone

    A SIM card on Verizon is for LTE. If she didn't have insurance and is not eligible for an upgrade, I would suggest going to a Verizon Corporate store and inquiring what a replacement would cost. Unfortunately, it won't be cheap. Another place to look for a replacement phone would be craigslist...

    What Bums Me Out

    Before I petitioned a Lodge, I scoured the Internet for information about Freemasonry and what I found was shocking. There are so many anti-Freemason sites, not to mention youtube videos. Some believe this site was launched to compete with the official GLOTX website, but that's not the case. It...

    Relationship Advice

    Done and problem solved :) I hated to bring it up, but I knew if I didn't, things wouldn't improve. In the beginning of our relationship I was very adamant on paying for everything so it almost became routine. She explained, and was right that in the beginning she did offer, but I would always...

    Relationship Advice

    As many of you know, I've been divorced for over a year. Thankfully, my ex-wife and I maintain a good relationship, not only on a personal level, but as parents to our kiddos. That being said, I've been dating a girl since December and so far everything is going well, but there are a few...

    Grips?

    I don't think so. If I gave a specific grip to someone who isn't a Mason, they wouldn't know what happened, which is exactly the point. If they don't recognize it, then it works. If they do recognize it, proceed ;)

    Is there any way that a Muslim brother could become a 360 degree mason?

    I've been told that if you're willing to defend the Christian Faith as if it were your own then yes, you could join. I'm not saying I agree with it, but that's what I've been told.

    Solicitation of funds from Grand Lodge of Texas AF & AM

    I wish this site had a 10000000000x "Thanks" button! Well said! Pride shouldn't make our beloved Fraternity bankrupt. The purpose of Freemasonry was never to build lavish buildings, but to make good men better. That's a fact. Our Local Lodges are teetering on the brink of demise and with that...

    Solicitation of funds from Grand Lodge of Texas AF & AM

    So today I was going through all my mail and suddenly I noticed a letter from the Grand Lodge of Texas. Typically I throw their letters away because 9 out of 10 times it's soliciting money, yet for some odd reason I opened it. Low and behold, please send money. Many of you know my views on the...

    People you may not have known was a mason

    "Thomas was a Freemason at Sol. D. Bayless Lodge No. 359 Fort Wayne, Indiana, and a member of the Shriners; he received the honorary 33rd degree in 1995"

    Hardship Concerning Dues

    From what I remember, such a proposal would have to be presented to the bylaws committee and if approved, voted on by the Lodge. It would then have to be submitted to Grand Lodge. I'm rusty, but I think that's how the process works in TX.
