I know this may be a silly question but is that the right way of asking with the term sponcer?
"I also like the fact that wherever I am, there are those nearby who will help me out if needed."

Forgive me if I am mistaken, but you don't speak like a Mason...
"I also like the fact that wherever I am, there are those nearby who will help me out if needed."
This is not the typical thought process of someone who has stood in the North-East corner of the lodge. If you are indeed a Mason, may I suggest that you spend a little more time trying to discover the secret in the lesson you were taught while standing in that corner.
Brotherhood is. But the first lesson you're taught is what you can do for others, not what others can do for you. So from your quote, you've missed the whole lesson of charity.

Im sorry, I thought brotherhood was a perfectly good reason to become a Mason.

not joining would be foolish, many including myself would pay big to have the oppertunity you have. Not everyone has a mason willing to voucher them in and you should not pass up the chance to open your mind.
