Dont Taze Me Bro Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Seems like a lot of work: http://www.masonic-lodge-of-education.com/masonic-investigative-committee.html Just based on the background check and interview process. Especially if your petition is relying on people you don't know making judgement on your character based off minimal knowledge/info of you personally and basically second hand. This looks tougher than a job interview lol Granted, it sounds cool. So X, how hard is it really to join? And if they deny your petition, can you reapply again or do they not believe people can change? Or would they have different people conduct an interview. There is a lodge about 10 mins away down the road from me, never knew it was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xameil Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 It's not hard to become one honestly. If you get denied, yes you can reapply. Some lodges will always deny your first application to see if you are serious enough about it to re-apply. You get out of it what you put into it honestly. I have been a Mason for 21 years. I did not fully understand it until about 4 years ago. I don't really want to hijack the thread about it. So if ya want to know more, PM me. There are also a handful more of us on here as well.

Elessar78 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I realized that I still remember the day I found out Magic Johnson had AIDS. I want my money back. That's occupying some serious mental memory real estate that I could be using for other more seminal moments. 9/11 changed ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xameil Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Oh I see it now lol Lol in general, most masons don't openly discuss politics (unless they are politicians) and when they do its low key, and NEVER in the lodge. They also keep religious talk to a minimum, and don't put down other religions...except the Catholics....for obvious reasons..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipwhich Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Freemasons don't talk politics Not true. My dad was a grand poobah. And a shriner. And the treasurer for another offshoot of masons (Tall Cedars). And he talks politics. Plus he works with a female group of the masons. Forget the name. Masons is all about charity, nothing more, nothing less. Doing good for people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
