Actually our Fundraisers include spaghetti dinners, pin sales, ice cream feeds ,oyster feeds, and pancake breakfasts, ALL of our money from fundraisers pays the cost of the items needed to run it (I.E. foodstuffs) and for my Lodge the rest goes to the childrens summer reading program at our local library.

Great grandfather and great uncle (his son) were/are 33 degree masons.
Nothing spectacular that I can tell. (As far as what someone who wants to know about conspiracies would be interested in.)

You know, I think its like the
ant conspiracy, more info on the actual conspiracy here.

But in short, here is the scoop.
Consider how all the politicians are related to each other and to the politicians/crown of england.

To throw things off they spread their 'seed' a bit so others can say, "Im related also to politicians, etc and Im no one special". But when one looks close those at the top tend to have a tighter 'gene pool' to keep the queen be 'pure.'

Guess it could hypothetically be the same with the concept of 33 degree masons.
Many indeed do not know any secrets...but those who have the tight connections and bloodline mix...well there may be something to that.

Now this does not make masonry bad at all. It just means they hide there, like they hide everywhere.

But again, its a bit more deeper than what is stated here, and really not all that sinister.
In fact once one realizes the underlying truth, all of the conspiracies...regardless of how true they may be, loose their edge.

When people awaken inside (drop the mental labels and identification with form, and enjoy the form instead of believing it is who they are...and this includes thought as form,) then it is when all of these topics become quite pointless, and those who may be in power trying to manipulate loose their control.

Sure it makes for great writing and movies...sinister plots, that wind to and fro, going ever darker and deeper...but like movies and books, as the zen saying goes "this to shall pass". Its all a story in the dance of life...and we are the dance.

Peace

First, let me state in no uncertain terms that George W. Bush is not now, nor has ever been, a Freemason. He's galactic for sure, but not a Mason.

The myth that Masonic candidates are asked to spit upon the Bible is of unknown origin, but is entirely make believe. The Bible is denoted "The Great Light of Masonry", and is treated as sacred within the Lodge. Most Lodges present Bibles as gifts to new members.

The 33° is a degree of chivalry, based on the Knights Templar. No Mason has ever been asked to spit on the Bible, or any other scripture of religion, in Freemasonry.

Do not forget Edmund Burke, who softened up parliament to allow America's Independance succeed.

Yes indeed they must be patient, and patience is truly a virtue.
Its to easy to forget where we came from and the dogmas that we held close to us and eventually left behind...if at all.

Information comes in stages, and thus you will always have these kind of post...peoples paths intersect at various points, but overall the journey is unique and can only be walked by that person. (stating the obvious, but its good to point out.)

That which we take for granted (info) and grow tiresome when we hear the same 'clap trap' - we must remember those who were patient with us when we once believed the same. (Now if for you masons were never an issue, than Im sure there was something else that you could find to relate to what Im saying.)

Patience is by no means easy...I get frustrated by what seems so obvious and yet seems to allude the masses. - Not that I have reached some state of Nirvana...but there isnt a state to reach is there.

And again, when I see where I came from it gives humility to remember that indeed it is not about an us vs. them or a superior/inferior ladder thing - it all boils down to the joy of life and the journey that individual takes.

So indeed, hats off to the masons on here who do have patience every time someone thinks they are in cahoots with the devil. Again, they do better than I do in the patience realm I believe...something that would benefit me to incorporate into my life perhaps.

Peace

I represented a young film maker client who took me to his lodge in Santa Monica. It was an intro. I was not interested. They were very nice. The vibe was like Scientology and so was the intro. Very similar.

Here goes. Tino and all of his projects were very Nazi. He loves to play Nazi characters and it is the only time he shows real talent is with this subject matter. All of his financing comes from his lodge and "brothers". This is why I accepted the initiation to the lodge- in an effort to negotiate better deals for him with his resources.

Again- they were all very nice, respectful, professional and small time savvy regarding entertainment. The amounts discussed were not enough (commissions) to keep my interest. It was explained to me that the higher he goes within the organization- the more money he would have access to.

This made perfect sense to me- no conspiracy at all that I could see. Tino is ambitious, however he is narrow minded artistically (Pro-Nazi genre).

I did not work with budgets under $100K. So that ended!

I believe this intro was for me to help get higher up their ladder to play with bigger money because they really like him personally.

The only odd thing that occurred was when I suggested to the poo-bah (whatever he's called inside- I met him as Ben) that he hook up Tino with their entertainment higher up members which he said there were- I was met with a stare that was not pleasant - instantly the glare disappeared into a smile and good-bye greeting and "Ben" left.

This was my first and last experience with the Masonic regime.

For what its worth.

Interesting. I thought it was the MASONS who pretty much *founded* America, and gave you your liberties in the first place.




So it means America was always under British control?
