I totally agree.

There was a disturbance of sorts when the Grand Master's report of his activities came up. It was short, and to the point. The claim was that the report was not totally complete, that something had been left out. I too wondered if this was in reference.

Once arrested by the Grand Master, if not returned by GL vote, is the charter pulled at that point?

Yes. But it's totally up to the brethren of my two lodges. I would like to become a voting member of the Grand Lodge of Texas and to be among the men I've grown to admire for their service in the East. From all appearances, it's a good measure of a man. Peace, harmony, and respect for the...

Guys, I didn't crack the book on this one ... but I think its "I don't got no ideal. I think?" At any rate, it warn't Abraham 'cause he ain't from the Commonwealth and he warn't no mason. Howard just might not have lived long enough to get all that done. But, he could have attended many...

"the streets are crawling with soldiers."

don't believe it! he's pulling our leg again! there's just got to be one more movie.

don't forget the dishes. Personally, I despise good stewards. They dirty way to many dishes with all that mayo!

good point Coach. faith without works so to speak.

Both of my lodges are suburban. It's hard to call them urban when you can see downtown 30 miles away (on a clear day.) They definitely can't be called rural with 750,000 people around. I have pretty much the same mix at Brother Rhitland. But I think it has more to do with Texas than...

Well said brother. Now, what do you all feel about extending that tenant to the dinning hall? I'm a little perplexed when I hear hatred and fear in the dining hall from people who bray that it is an offense to talk politics, religion, and creed in the lodge room. They don't seem to...

So I've been told by other traveling brethren. Louisiana has many charters including those from Port Au Prince and Pennsylvania. I suppose there was much levity through the 1830s when things began to come together. Talk about a true melting pot; gotta love my home state.

That last point is well taken. And I agree with you completely. Still brother, I feel if the shoe was on the other foot ... they would still choke on it. Hope to see you tomorrow at Grand Lodge. I love your spirit. God Bless!

They won't like this one BIG TIME brother. I've already heard invoked freedom of speech, verse from the Bible, et al. It simply boils down to this brother: "When in the course of human events" it becomes necessary for one bigot to push his agenda in lodge and totally disregard the tenants of...

Think I'll just monitor this subject brothers ... hint ... hint. Ghee, they really don't do read it do they?

Got here with the answer before I could brother. But you are completely correct on all points. This is one of those "lights" that should be taught to brethren along the way. To my knowledge that threshing floor remains beneath the temple to this day. David did purchase it but was told by...

Fair winds and following seas there Brother Zack. Welcome aboard.

Just curious. Guys I don't have a crawfish in this pot, but how many of you brethren involved are able to separate yourselves from this profane world distraction when you tile the lodge? Being of the Bayou Bengal persuasion myself I can understand the emotions. But, come on guys, 365/24...

Re: West Virginia Court Rules That It Has The Power To Force Freemasonry To Follow It Much should be said about parting upon the square.
