If good and evil is perspective would that make it relative and random to each individuals experience? If good and evil is perspective then their would be no good or evil outside our perception and could be different from man to man right? I do believe there are things that we as humans have...

Re: Can non-Christians go to Heaven? I would never take it that way, I have no idea what goes on with God but I do love to talk about it. We as humans have a firm grasp on our version of right and wrong, good or evil which we are provided through our perception of reality or nervous system...

Great Blog from Schrodinger's Kitten How The Universe Is I apologise for the overuse of really, lots and very in this piece. Anyone wishing to buy me a thesaurus may. The universe is mostly nothing. On a galactic scale, it is, indeed, very big. And the lumps of planets and stars in it —...

Re: Can non-Christians go to Heaven? You better break this off owls into a Big bang Thread b/c I can go down this rabbit hole all day if you want. It boils down to a person believing that mind came before matter or matter came before mind and Masons (at least our kind) cannot believe the the...

Does it work like Blue Lodge you have to have been a GWarden to be GM or DGM?

Can we amend this resolution? If so does anyone know how that works?

Congrats and I would tell you to get that work in asap but hang out as a FC for awhile because it is far to often passed over as the degree before you get your Masters degree. It rarely gets the respect or time it deserves.

I could not say for sure it has always been that way or was its intended purpose but it sure seems that way with the message being broadcast by most religions.

I know this has come up before but a code book would be a great way to answer some of the money woes. I would buy another if they did put one out and for that matter I would probably buy any book the GL published for education. Although after looking into this I am not sure money woes are the...

Can't we vote out someone in the line?

Heaven is not something all religions share. Allot of religions believe in reincarnation till we all are good enough to be in the presence of God. This article exemplifies why I chose to follow my own path and not get involved in major religions. Heaven and Hell in modern times has become a...

Did not attend but i know those are great opportunities to meet Brothers from around the state. Masonic Fellowship being our Fraternities most valuable asset I would hope we begin to attend that every year no matter if we have been or not. Plus Q & A sessions are always great opportunities to...

I know some people who are apart of the AMORC (Ancient Mystic Order of The Rosae Crucis) and they love it. Although I have had people say bad things about it I have never heard such claims from an actual member. The teaching are very occult and not for most people kinda why I think most bash...

I do not know of any laws or customs concerning the wearing of S&C but I am new as well. The only thing in the law book I have seen was about taking off decals when you sale your car. It is up to each Master Mason when they wear it.

Good point brother Bill about the laws, that could def. be a reason we cannot co-mingle. This song really has got me to thinking about how differently we express ourselves but ultimately are saying the same thing. That song was all about making yourself better and not being a wanna be sheep in...

We draw the line when it becomes wrong to accommodate. If we say enough is enough and no religion gets holidays off you would see home school be the only school. The community sets the rules to accommodate their believes and if they suffer in sports or other aspects due to religious believes I...

I loved the line "I quit writing so I do it mentally". Josh said it best and I agree. We express ourselves how we know how and since most of us did not grow up in the ghetto we would never understand or get why the ghetto does what it does to people. That song although some money may be made...

The term Holy Scriptures can be any book you are correct but in Texas that is not the case for the majority of people. In the EA lecture there is use of the term scripture to refer to the Holy Bible as well. Not many if any religions especially outside the major 7 refer to their divine...

You again bring up an excellent point Brother that needs strong consideration. Our older Brothers who do not use computers do not need to be overlooked but the issue is those same brothers are hard up for money so if we hit them with a large increase they will not be able to afford dues and...

Your explanation is beautiful and could not say I disagree with much if any of it but as we both know there are people who believe differently and Masonry should not give the impression it leans toward one believe or the next. The VoSL for Masonry is part of the furniture of the lodge and is...
