Honestly, I might have to agree. He says he "was" a Mason, and looking at his posts here and on other threads, he does seem very judgemental and confrontational, with a general lack of respect for other races and women. If he was a Mason, he wasn't a very good ambassador for us, and he seems to have parted ways with the fraternity.

My "obligation" not oath stated that I will not reveal any secrets of masonry, and as I stated previously I never have and i never will.
It is an Obligation to your fellow brothers.
It is an OATH to GOD.
And you seem to select only certain portions
of your Obligation/Oath to adhere to.
It's not JUST any secrets of Masonry,
it is "any secrets of Masonry that have been,
may be now or at any future time be
communicated to me or in any way
come to my knowledge". Secrets
being labeled as ANYTHING
shared amongst the brethren.
And yes, I was 32Deg Scottish Rite.
While I do agree with the need to share
info to save lives, I do not know if I could
break an Oath/Obligation to do so.
This is the moral fiber which distinguishes
a Master Mason from the fellow craft.
I'm sure this thread will be under close scrutiny
in coming days.
You say you agree to share info to saves lives, but don't know if you could break an Oath to God and your Obligation to your brotherhood to do so. Your obligation to your brothers is more important then saving lives?

Sixth, no Masonic Organization that I am aware of allows an 18 yr old to be initiated, passed or even raised. As it is passed down by by-laws that the age requirement is 21 for a petition
Hey man, it can be 18 here in the UK if your father is a mason.
