How does that benefit anyone else?

It doesn't.

Why does it HAVE to benifit anyone else? It shouldnt.

Perhaps you should re read the OP. Paul is kind enough to enform us that if there is any way at all to come back and share all the secrets with us, he will. That is what he meant in the title of this thread.

It is also a thread containing a members last post on ATS as they are dying.

Paul is saying goodbye to everyone, that should be benifet enough for a true ATSer.

Paul has the decency to post one last time and wish us all the best in our search for the truth and you are worried about how this might benifit you....

How exactly are you wanting to "benifit" anyway?

What could you possibly have in mind? You know what forget it... It just is not worth it.

Paul if you are reading, please ignore that trollish post (as we all should). ATS loves you very much. Never forget that Paul. I thank you once again for your many contributions to ATS and to the world as a whole.

We love you very much. See you on the otherside.

The courage you are showing is indeed an inspiration to all.

I wish you fair winds and following seas on your final voyage.

God Bless.

A speedy and informative trip for you Paul. Don't look back, somebody may be gaining on you.

I'll leave you with a poem

Is it like this
In death's other kingdom
walking alone
at the hour when we are
trembling with tenderness
that would kiss
form prayers to broken stone

T.S.Eliot
The Hollowmen

Peace, my friend, may you find all the answers.

God speed man. Get saved and accept Jesus before you go. No offense, but even Houdini couldn't make it back to inform us of the hidden secrets. He claimed to his wife, if anyone could do it ...it would be him. Forget about the esoteric and the arcane and accept Jesus Christ as your personal saviour and let GOD worry about the miracles and the secrets. If you have been saved and have accepted Jesus...then you will be just fine. I know this sounds funny coming from a moniker such as Sinister_Scarecrow, but this is only a name from a scene in an old movie and nothing intended to promote evil. tyake it easy and GOD speed.

You are exactly right. We are Watchmen. some us aren't going to make it. But, when God starts his annointing amazing things are going to happen. Evangelist like Billy Graham, Robert Sheuller, Benny Hinn, Hagee, Hagin, Copeland, TD Jakes and many more are apostates and we have the evidence. Jesus Christ did not being religion to mankind. Jesus brought redemtion and salvation. get ready its not far off.

Paul,

I'm not a poet, mate, but I'd like to think that I can still discern beauty, nobility, and honour, in all their myriad forms.

From what I've known of you over the last few years, you live your life like a masterfully-written poem. Even were it only conducted via this forum, it has been replete with integrity, wit, thoughtfulness, and passion. What would life be without these things???

I echo all that has already been said by Trinityman, Rockpuck and Fitzy.

What a journey you now undertake! What an unfolding of all that is kept from our mortal eyes! If, where you go now, you act only with the candour, and brotherly love you have afforded us - the inhabitants of that place will be indeed blessed for your presence...

I know this much: Your soul is up to the journey, old mate, if anyone's is.

Thanks for your strength, honour, and compassion. It's inspiring for a confused lost soul, dontcha know...

Ben.

So what exactly is going to happen? Are they going to "kill" the mason and "send" him to the next plane of existance? that sounds like crap to me. More like, a government conspiracy to attract really intelligent people to a group and make it seem honorable to kill themselves and leave behind the stupid sheep...? hmmmmmm

What exactly are you talking about? Our friend Paul has cancer and is dying.

This thread really has nothing to do with masonry. It is a last post and a good bye from Paul to all of ATS...

I must say, I am impressed with all of the insight into death and the beyind that this thread has brought forth. All kinds of different beliefs and kind words.

Paul you have really made a greatly positive impression on ATS. We are proud to call you a member of ATS.

See you around on the other side one day, ok?

Peace and love to all of you!

since Stove has spoken, then by his own Statement, he doesnt know anything ! that old quote is invariably misunderstood.

Better to say "those who Know, dont talk so much; and those who do talk Too much, usually dont know anything. much Truer.

wheres mr.Paul ? are you going to make a Last Brave message to
us on ATS ? hope it is not too painful for you. peace.

That made me smile. Very clever my friend. Very clever indeed.

I too am hoping that Paul graces us with his presence at least one last time but at the same time I completly understand if he does not.

Peace and love!

Bro. Paul

May you know in your soul that there is no need to be afraid. You are going home, and you will be peaceful and happy and in the presence of those who have always cared for you.

Mark
