St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Please document the above.

This is the second "claim" you've made without any collaborating evidence. Freemasons "claim" Danny Thomas and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital? What does that even mean? Danny Thomas is a great guy, and I think it's great he's a Freemason, but that isn't scorecard material. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is a great philanthropy but I wouldn't trade it for the Shriners Hospital for Children... Not for a second...

Sure, there are great men who are or have been Freemasons, but the vast majority of "great" Freemasons are ordinary men. The use of "lists" are a product of the argument that pervades this forum. One side tries to discredit members by who is on the list, and the other uses the list to bolster their argument that great men belong to the fraternity.

You alone know the true motive and intent of your claims, but those claims that are factually incorrect will be pointed out, and your credibility will suffer.

Go back and read the original post carefully this time.

I'm pretty sure that those men were "great" by the standards of you and other supporters of Freemasonry.

I have no problem with St. Judes, and if my other half gets into this thread she'll get herself banned. She wouldn't be here today without them. They went to the Shriners and other so called charity groups, and NOT ONE of them would help her or her family. St. Judes went above and beyond to save her life, and we both will support them for as long as they or we are around.

Have we as a people became so cynical and fearful that when someone or some group does something good we have to suspect their motives?

They do good work for those who need it when they need it.
