You see, that is why people hate Masons. Because you always say we need to get a secret decoder ring to understand your art and your organization.
You play a game with people instead of just being honest and coming right out and explaining "this is what this means."
You intentionally frustrate. That is playing a game.
You had a chance to educate. Instead you spat in our faces.edit on 11/12/2012 by subjectzero because: (no reason given)

The Masonic letter G reminds us that our every act is done in the sight of the Great Architect of the Universe.
"By letters four and science five, this “G” aright doth stand, in due Art and Proportion; you have your answer, friend.”
What are the "letters four"? It is believed that they stand for "YHWH", the name of the Great Architect of the Universe (pronounced "Yahway". (sometimes pronounced Jehovah) in the ancient Hebrew language, from which the Bible was translated:
Which is the 5th science? Geometry.
The Letter G stands for "Geometry", which is the mathematical science upon which Architecture and Masonry were founded........The letter G in Freemasonry stands for both the Great Architect of the Universe and Geometry....or, to be more technically correct, it stands for Geometry under the Great Architect of the Universe.

You have found us out.
congrats.
And the first one to do it too. Give yourself a star.
Speaking for myself, of the ATS forums I read, I generally only spend time in the Secret Societies forum. A few of my brethren may have broader interests on the site, but most of us pretty much hang out here as a place to socialize when we're not busy with work, school or life. *shrug*

Give it a rest, haven't you got rituals to attend, secret handshakes and knee bearing to do, and goats to erm, oh, nevermind
And those aren't "G", right? So you're supporting the claim that the G isn't for "God"? Just checking.

What about Hebrew, Aramaic, Arabic? God generally starts with an Aleph, as in Elohim, Allah, Elah (aramaic) El (Phoenician) etc
Actually, I find it 100% coincidental that any gematria equals any other gematria.
I find it to be beyond coincidence that the numerical value of God in English - 26 - happens to correspond to the numerical value of the tetragrammaton.

Now, a few words on looking for things. When you go looking for something specific, your chances of finding it are very bad. Because of all the things in the world, you're only looking for one of them. When you go looking for anything at all, your chances of finding it are very good. Because of all the things in the world, you're sure to find some of them.

...it's not so unreasonable to suggest that the philologists responsible for this word arranged for their to be a numerical correspondence between its conception of God and the Israelite conception of God.
At what point between the transition from the Latin alphabet to the English one do you feel it occured?
