This letter sums up quite a bit of why I'm trying to join. While researching the history and mystery of the Brotherhood, it occurred to me that all of the people arguing the anti-Masonic position were people I already disagreed with - and who would already disapprove of _me_. As I told one of the investigating team, any group that can get Jack Chick and Benedict XIV on the same side of an argument MUST have something going for them.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing this on your blog, Mr. Hodapp.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12329075072836774861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25683662.post-43535707813403968822009-10-11T15:51:59.622-04:002009-10-11T15:51:59.622-04:00Feh.

These words you have quoted should be written in letters of fire--in the skies above this troubled world, and within every heart.
