You can also look at Masonry as being like the company 3M (the company that takes products and makes them better). We do that with good men.

When I said "I can't prove nor disprove it so I leave it at that," I was not talking about Masonic involvement. There was no part of the video that refered to the Masons. This is specifically why I didn't want to assume your position and asked you directly what it was.

That's why I asked "Who designed the art on dollar bills from 1$ to 100$?". Thought maybe we could find a connection.

Why should I have to explain the meanings behind the symbols to you?

You dont have to explain the meanings behind the symbols. I already know what their meanings are. I just dont understand why?? What's the purpose of it?

No, I don't practice the occult in the negative sense of the word. I love astrology, that's occult. And if you are incinuating that I DO practice the occult (in the negative sense of the word) in Masonry, please prove it.

I dont blame you for anything, GG. I dont know you in person.

"Furthermore, let's just say by some chance there were Masons involved in this conspiracy surrounding 9/11. Just because those individuals were involved does not mean anything. It only means that those individuals were also Masons."

And I wont repeat it again:
These are my beliefs about Freemasonry.

This is more than just a "conspiracy theory."

Soon as I started watching part 3 which had sound, and he started talking about the Masons, I just started feeling sad. I felt sad for all the people that actually believe that stuff. The people who believe that stuff are as bad as the sheeple they feel superior to.

There is no grand plan in Masonry. How much more simple can I put it???? There is no conspiracy. We are NOT a secret society. If we were secret, you wouldn't know about us! Instead, our charity is not enough. Our scholarships are not enough. Our Shriner's hospital (where all children get treated for FREE) is not enough. Our food runs are not enough. NONE OF OUR CHARITY IS ENOUGH. Instead, uniformed and misled people fall for these silly conspiracy theories.

We are a benevolent organization with focus on charity and morality. Our lodge meetings ONLY focus on charitable events!

Songwriter, you don't want to believe me, a member of the fraternity, but you will believe this numbskull who put out this video(s)? C'mon, I KNOW you are smarter than that to fall for that bullsquash. The real danger in the world is freaks like that video creator who spread nonsense and gullible people (no disrespect to you) like you just eat it up and take every word he says like its the gospel never once back checking any one of his claims.

The creators of these vids are as bad as religious zealots.

Did you watch all of them?

Not all of it is %100 true, I know, but a large part of it absolutely give an answer to some of our questions.

No disrespect to me? Are you sure?

Believe me, I can distinquish right from wrong.
You are not an authority to judge my intelligence.
Please, do not try to force your beliefs on me, GG.
Let people express freely what they think.

Tell your own truth and if it makes sense to me, I take it.

Juni... Hi!!! Thank you for your prayers. Bear is doing well and staying safe. He goes out on Missions a few times a week (which does cause my heart a bit of discomfort) but I know he takes precautions and his goal is to make it home to me. I am blessed in that we get to talk at least every day on the IM or phone (even if it is only for a bit). We send each other care packages and I am fortunate to work for a solid Regiment that just came off a 15 month deployment. They understand what I am going through and my commander is awesome.

Thank you again for your prayers!
