    What did PGM of Texas Lightfoot mean by this statement?

    Hamlet, I think. No clue where. My favorite word from Hamlet = Fardels PS: Act III Scene 1 (Google is great)

    What did PGM of Texas Lightfoot mean by this statement?

    This answer is coming from a new master mason, so I may be way off, but here it is: I would like to see the entire speech. It may put some context to this statement that I am not reading. My interpretation of just the sentence (with no additional context) is that he is encouraging masons to...

    Great Architect Of The Universe

    God. Supreme Being. What Bro. Kurt Said. The interesting thing is, I think "The Great Architect Of The Universe" is a wonderfully descriptive answer to the question "Who is God?". Most of the Hebrew names for God are descriptive of his nature. Elohim, for example, appears to be the closest...

    Movies

    Movies are art. So, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". My choices of great movies may not agree with the next guy's. In fact, I usually disagree with the awards shows (Oscars, etc).

    Instructor Gift/Codebook Translation

    I bought a pocket watch to give to my instructor on the night I am raised. I am going to have it engraved and was hoping to get some ideas here. So... 1) Any cool ideas on what to say? 2) I was thinking "Thanks for teaching me the craft - NR". Can someone translate that (or any of the...

    Talking with those interested

    I completely agree. Although I am new to the fraternity myself, my grandfather was a very active Mason and was always open about masonry. He knew what was secret and although he kept it under his hat he was kind and soft in telling us it was secret and why. Everything else he spoke about very...
