The problems started when the officers were acting like monkeys, this bothered me and others as it was corrupting the ritual, and in fact the S
Warden addressed the W Master as Worshipful Monkey. I wished I was kidding!
So, I went to the Master and stated that some members did not like that. This only caused more Monkey acting combined with frenzy
scratching.
First off, I feel that I must state that I am not a Mason. I have a few friends who are and they are great guys who have expressed nothing but
positive things about their fraternal organization. That said, I can only shake my head in amazement at your statements.
Let me get this straight. When you say that the officers were "acting like monkeys", do you mean
acting like monkeys? You know,
knuckle-dragging, flea-picking, armpit scratching
monkeys?
All I can say is that this is one of the most bizarre things that I have ever read about any Masonic activity. Has your lodge gone
bananas (no
pun intended but, hey, it seemed to fit)? Is the Master of your lodge sane? How can the Master of a lodge exert so much control over the officers
and membership to make them act this way?
