That would likely cause a schism and a new Grand Lodge to be created.

That's my lodge!

Personally, I don't see why anyone cares if someone posts in an old thread. It's better than no activity at all, which has happened to a lot of message boards in the era of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.

It depends on jurisdiction. In Minnesota, I'm permitted to ask someone if they'd be interested, but I can only ask them once, and then have to leave them alone about it. Far too many possible good candidates are mistakenly under the impression that you must be invited, and since we never...

What help are you looking for? We cannot help you become a Mason in UAE, as it is not permitted there.

Brother Cook is correct, and don't let anybody tell you different. Wear it on any finger of either hand, pointing in the direction that looks best to you. People will tell you "I was told by the most knowledgeable Mason I've ever known that it's supposed to be worn . . ." but there is...

I can't tell you how angry this makes me. Morons.

The web site for the Grand Lodge of Ghana is out of service, but there is contact information on their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Grand-lodge-of-Ghana-103375248399575/ You need to contact them to find out how to proceed.

I'd also recommend "Cracking the Freemasons' Code" by Robert L.D. Cooper.

If I was to meet with you as a petitioner to my lodge, I'd be extremely concerned that you have entirely the wrong image of what Freemasonry is and what knowledge you were going to gain. Both the Crowley obsession and the cyanide reference give me pause.

And that's just what it looks like: a Northern Masonic Jurisdiction Scottish Rite 33rd Degree patent.
