No offense Brother, but your post has absolutely nothing to do with the discussion in this thread. It would be much more appropriate to either find a thread on this topic and necro it (just annoy Brother Nagy) or start a new one.

When I petitioned over 25 years ago I was clueless about how the process worked. So when I was raised in a Man to Mason class I thought that was just how it was done. It wasn't until later that I discovered how the degrees should work and I have been an ardent advocate against one day classes...

How stale is that popcorn!

I don't think anyone is suggesting you are. If so, I missed it. I don't think yours is a dup account.

This all began because you made the statement: "I have no doubt that Masonry is the evolution of Tironesian and Templar thought and relationships formed from 1128 onwards, right from Hugh de Payns relationship with Rotrou II of Chateaudun (patron of Bernard of Tiron) and Alfonso "the Battler"...

When Masons come together to explore topics here the discussion is almost always pleasant and respectful. But after years of uncountable cowens who seek to invade our space with crackpot theories some brusqueness can be forgiven.

LoL Thank you for showing your true colors so soon and saving us the trouble. Someone who was a true initiate of Freemasonry and had the actual knowledge pertaining to the degrees would have the integrity to hold them sacred and not reveal them to any who had not received that degree. By...

See, statements like that will not go over well. Coming to a gathering of Freemasons without being one of us and telling us that you aren't a Mason but that you understand our degrees is immediately off putting. I don't care what you have read or what you think you know, until you actually...

Just trying to process everything you have posted. I'm curious about your profile pictures, first. Not sure what you are trying to tell us. You have a Guy Fawkes mask, usually used to represent protesting against govt / banks / establishment, etc yet painted with patriotic colors. And your...

One of the requirements to petition a Lodge in GA for membership is very clear: "Be recommended by two Masons who have known you for a minimum of six months and are members of a lodge recognized by the Grand Lodge of Georgia and one of whom must be a member of the lodge you wish to join."...

Once you contact the Lodge to express interest, they will spend time getting to know you until 2 Brothers are comfortable signing your petition.

That's absolutely false. A great deal of the applicants these days likely do not know any members of the Lodge when they first contacted it.

I live in Florida. There is no Ethiopa Florida.

So sad. Undiagnosed or untreated mental illness here in the US is one of the greatest threats we are facing that nobody is talking about.

The world needs more healthcare professionals, mechanics, plumbers, engineers, or any of hundreds of other fields that benefit society. We don't need any more influencers, an "occupation" (I use the term extremely loosely) that contributes nothing of any value or substance.

Anti Masons perform some amazing mental gymnastics when they are coming up with their theories. The Jack Chick pamphlets are my favorite.

You realize this thread is 11 (ELEVEN) years old, right? lol Not quite a record on reviving a dead thread but it's up there! But to answer your question, no. If you are a Brother, as your username suggests, I would think that you know that every state in the US is a separate and autonomous...

So, let me get this straight. You came to a forum that exists to discuss the fraternal organization of Freemasonry to ask us how to be an influencer? Not even sure where to begin on that one. Of all the assanine requests we get on this forum, that is a first. Congratulations.
