Well this guy, who I consider a friend now, has resigned to just let me be...he insisted for a long time. In all that time he has convinced me that something he was introduced to in Paris made him ANTI religion. He always says he WAS an anarchist ( Acrata) , and that he IS against all forms of imposition in present tense. Always the distinction. He arrived Anti everything, anarchist almost. I am not so sure he left in the same way. WHY?, he insists that Jesus did exist but his twin brother was crucified...that does not make sense...
I have never met an anarchist that even entertained the idea of religion being a tool of the state, and at the same time thought Jesus was real and that he went to France and his twin was crucified.
what does that mean.....?....well, this guy is into some "different" ideology. He thinks of sex as a part of spirituality, possible grail tradition, I threw some language around and he speedily avoided it, showing training in avoiding mining in that sense...people´s abilities show their preparation and sometimes their intent. If I can shoot like a sniper, I might be a sniper.....He is not anti anything since his stance is always taken in the past tense..he follows an institution....that is evident. He always mentions the religion of the lamas....as the only valid one..tunnel of light ect...he had "an experience"..

Yes, and then the Masons of Chicago celebrated him for it. He wrote the Lucifer Magazine. Nice.
Again, for the reading comprehension impaired. He was arrested for oppossing RAPE. If you have a problem with that then you are far from right, Enoch.

He was also on the same side as women who did not want to get RAPED.

The question is, which Lord of the two are they following.

There is only one God and it is not Lucifer who you happen to believe in and from what I can gather by previous posts, most of the Masons here do not.

On top of this, his character and prejudice is in question with the whole KKK thing. I simply rely on what he actually said in his book.

Either way, the name of his paper has nothing to do with your silly Christian Devil as is evidenced by what you quoted.

see, I feel this way about people who are Catholic, after all, everyone KNOWS about the Inquisition, Canon Law and all--lots of people died at the hand of the Church.
So WHY do people think that its OK to associate with any group with a #ty history? Wouldnt common sense rule out the logic that "the Lodge has changed" or "thats old Masonry, the New Masonry is good"
Well Ill tell you.
They quite simply, ARE BEING IGNORANT. and also, they are guilty of following a cult religion by association.
SO----no amount of apologies for ANy religion including freemasonry. (how can you say its not religion? really now--are you being honest ND?)edit on 7-8-2012 by rainbowbear because: (no reason given)

am I being honest? Yes. And from what I have found, the hate against freemasonry is all because people were pissed off that they weren't let in on the "secret". NONE of the claims panned out to be true. I joined to find out what it was really about. If I found anything that went against what I believe, I would be out like a shot. But instead of finding things I didn't agree with, I found that the teachings are amazingly simple and they are pure. The hate comes from one place. Stupidity. I have to laugh now when I am told by a non member that I must not be high enough in the order to know the "real" deal. How the fluck would they know? Right, they wouldn't without being on the inside.
Freemasonry is not a religion. It encourages it's members to be active parts in their own respective religion. It promises nothing. We say prayers at the opening and closing of lodge. If that makes it a religion, then so is Baseball, football, and any other sport kids in the South can play.

I see your link and raise you another. Which is correct? History is not what they say, but where the character leads by the fruit they produce.
Origins of the KKK
Which side of the war was Pike on again?
