Now that the holidays and some final personal issues from the unloading of my business are over (officially turned in my plunger in November, but it's been haunting me), Issue #2 of The Journal of The Masonic Society is in the final stages of assembly. Articles include:
• Alpha Males: Trevor Stewart at Alpha Lodge, New Jersey by Jay Hochberg
• Cleaning the Temple by Mark A. Tabbert
• Defining Esotericism from a Masonic Perspective by Shawn Eyer
• On Brotherhood by Robert Wolfarth
• First Degree Masonic Tracing Board: art and text by Greg Stewart
• There's A Hole In Our Bucket, Dear Hiram, Dear Hiram by Stephen Dafoe

...and much, much more.

I have currently produced a video for my lodge (James K Polk #759), and I would like to share it with others.

WB Chris,
ReplyDeleteThank you for writing "Freemasons for Dummies"! My son-in-law is considering petitioning for membership, and a Brother referred him to your book. He found answers to many of his questions there, and when I visited him over the Christmas holiday he shared the book with me. Your book has re-awakened a dormant desire to work in the light of Masonry. I was initiated, passed and raised in 1980 in a lodge in the Philippines, and have not attended since I left that country in 1984. Your humor and matter-of-fact writing style are refreshing, and I read the book from cover to cover over a three-day period. I will be odering my own copy soon, and will be writing to the Secretary of my Mother Lodge to find out how to be brought back into good standing, so I can visit local lodges in Arizona, and possibly affiliate with them in the near future.
Thanks again for the wake-up call!

Randy,
ReplyDeleteThat's a great video, EXCEPT that while most hindus would not call themselves "hindu" except perhaps in the Western world, the title "hinduist" is not really a term and one some hindus would find kind of offensive. (In the middle of a conversation about diversity and tolerance.) Just a thought.
