Ken "The Snake" Stabler

I'm not sure how any of us would know with confidence that the falling tree made a noise in the forest. We simply must take the soiled bear at his word. After all, it is his alibi. :blush: AND, Brother Rhitland, I did follow your post to the end. And, though I did use some of my organic...

Agreed! fine porcelain can chip, crack, and (unfortunately) break.

Me too. Hell, it's damn hard to believe we've gone through the last forty years of ignorance ... steam engine or not! Again brethren, seems like our biggest exports of the last few decades have been fear and ignorance. I like the post too. Anyone contemplate the possibilities to have been...

:4:Yes to both posts! Unless there was leakage of highly sensitive technology or deployment all else was embarrassing for officials only. Too, and this is a big point with me, any breaches of the law should expect to be followed by the fullest execution of corresponding penalties. I believe...

I would thank it applies to us all. Not knowing PHA Scottish Rite degree work I can't say if the degrees are the same. But the message is most likely to be. The SCCR ritual book is included with the $35 fee. A good deal indeed. A couple of months ago I went through the current ritual...

Glad you made the choice friend. Don't worry, you won't find anything against your beliefs in your God. Too, don't worry about how you are going to handle the misinformed, that's come with the territory. Just remember to learn your lessons and keep reaching for more light. God bless you...

Brother Curt, I, like I assume you are, am thankful for all the good work being done by the Knights of Columbus. So, would I assume, are 99.9% of true masons out there. We're pleased to know that there are good men (and women) the world over doing their part to make this a more sane journey...

Apparently, much the same as you brother. Although you speak with more eloquence. Let no man think there are no requirements.

Gentlemen, Your comments are exactly why we showed up for the degree this morning. This is something the brother will never forget! And to be part of that is one of the many privileges of being a mason. To report, the brother's degree was like a who's who of recitalist from the North side of...

Agreed mch4970. The sad thing about "eye opening" is that it should be more than a mechanically activity to be experienced once or twice daily. Once one comes to the belief that The Almighty is much greater than any of us can comprehend one is on the right path. Especially if one realizes...

Ashton Lawson, how dare you! Well said and well defended my brother. Thank you very much.

I'm far to simple minded to glimpse the Almighty. Far to simple minded! But I can spot a guy who sells used cars, insurance, or any number of franchising operations. I think maybe the Almighty doesn't place as many obstacles in our way as we are led to believe. Those I've chosen to listen...

Well said and well learned Frater Cliff Porter! Well said and well learned indeed.

Brother lean on your light from the Scottish Rite degrees. Read my post yesterday in the Scottish Rite forum entitled from Morals and Dogma. Yes, you have gotten good advice from us. Yes, as a JW I too am mentally going through the chairs behind me and looking closely at the weak spots...

It's a old wife's tale that black men aren't involved in the Grand Lodge of Texas. I've met them everywhere. I am proud to be their brother. They have served in offices in the blue lodge and Scottish Rite. Since I'm not a member of the York Rite at this time I would not be able to bare...

Hey brother. Forget the busted truck. Call one of those brothers to come get you. You might even find a fair hand around the lodge who can give you a hand with that truck. One of life's great little lessons is this: busted trucks will always be with us, that petition into masonry is a...

Brethren, I see what you are experiencing and fight it as much as possible by grabbing a candidate and going over his esoteric work with him. This helps in two ways. He goes home feeling like someone really cares about him and his struggle. That is the biggie! It also keeps me from...
