Rad? More like a fool.
Doesn't seem like he's too happy to be a mason. Maybe he's realizing how depressing and wrong it is to be blindfolded and on your knees while you utter some "philosophical" nonsense
Who would want to gain knowledge and enlightenment through secrecy?

Here's some folks...
Here's some more...
What is repugnant is your pathetic attempts to slander and denigrate that which you don't understand, and have no desire to understand.
That is the very epitome of trollish behavior...

By the way, I'm proud of the fact that I CHOOSE to NOT understand any thing that is a part of Secret Societies.

To share my concerns and share what I believe is right. I think it's important for others to be aware that Secret Societies serves no good purpose whatsoever.

How can you even have an opinion when you readily admit you are ignorant about the subject?!? HOW do you take yourself seriously?!?
You're a pathetic excuse for a troll. I bope the mods have a field day with you.

How can you say that when you admit that you don't understand, and have no desire to understand?! How can you say it serves no purpose when you don't understand it?
... I'm asking questions and sparking a controversial subject?

Anyways maybe it is just around here they don't have no stupid handshakes since they know who they are. Of course not your basic FM lodge either since it is mainly family, friends of family, and the other 5 families who founded it in 1927.

The very word 'secrecy' is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths, and to secret proceedings.

Trinity I meant the specific lodge was built in 1927, not that FM was created in 1927. They follow Mason rules and all that, teach the symbolism, the history, past members, so forth. Sorry for the confusion on that.

The point of all this is that the modes of recognition are hardly a secret for anyone with internet access, so why bother maintaining secrecy? If that's the only secret, and it's not a secret anymore, why not abandon secrecy and all the socio-political baggage that comes with it?

Was this before or after he and Bobby had Marilyn escorted out of the back door of the White House by the Secret Service?

So you posted false information when TC asked you for modes of recognition?
Or did you break the oath and reveal some of the real secrets for somebody outside the circle?
When you posted the link to the modes of recognition in another thread (that was you, right, or am I mis-remembering?) it had to have been one of the above, either the ATS T&C were broken, or your oath to the fraternity was broken.
Which is it I wonder?
