2014 Proposed Resolutions and Recommendations (GLoTX AF&AM)
- Thread starter Blake Bowden
- Start date
The "charity above all else" crowd strikes again. Over the years, a number of parties have put forth resolutions that would (temporarily) divert annual gifts from over-funded masonic charities and feed those monies back into GL for infrastructure and programs. It's at that time that the "we have to give all our money to charity or we're not good Masons" crowd rushes the podium to argue their case, and emotion ends up winning the day. I believe in charity as much (or more) as anyone else, but when the building is falling apart and educational programs go wanting, it's time that (as one exasperated speaker lamented Saturday) "Charity begins at home."

Charity may begin at home but $100 per capita is just stupid. You would have every lodge in the state raising dues for those years.....Of course then in year four what happens...The lodge dues stay the same cause not it cost more to opperate and their are less paying members. Charity may begin at home....but that home has to be the lodge first then the GL.
