Hmmm how odd a region for free masons...
I do hope that you wont be exchanging any secret masonic codes of passwords that the general public will be able to view.

I would join your region, but it would give away my status as a secret operative.

I searched all over the place for a lodge here. Hummm how do I prove that I'm a Mason. Well first of all we (as you and I ) use to belong to the same region East Pacific. To answer your question is look at my screen name on military.com, other than that I did not recieve it neather will I so impart it.

Well technically, but then they formed a secret society which local business men now join sometimes. Nobody knows much about them as they're a secret society but if you want to know about them find a website about them.

I'm not a member of the Freemasons (of course!) but my late father used to be. And I've had dealings with them, about them raising money for a charity I've worked for. They're not as secretive as they used to be.

But I don't know about you ... how can we tell if you have a rolled-up trouser leg, and are giving the right kind of funny handshake?

:D

But it may go deeper than that, on the day that the order was give by the King of France to destroy the Knights of the Temple of Jerusalem, legend has it that several of the Templars left their cathedral in Paris hidden in the back of a hay wain. It is said that they were bound for Scotland, this was right around the time of the expansion of the Masonic orders, starting in Scotland and spreading to England, and then the United States. The Templars (a military order) did not resist their destruction, all over the French empire they meekly surrendered to the King's troops, despite knowing that most of them were headed for torture and all would have to confess to the crime of heresy or die...many, if not most chose to remain silent and die. If you're a conspiracy theorist, you might begin to think that the Templars were protecting some great secret that they then passed on to the Masons (who, by the way, meet in temples).

Ah Molay, our old master, they had to know they couldn't keep him down, not with the arts he learned from the Taoists. He may only rule in Shambala now, but very soon he shall be King of the World.

Hello, Infinite Loop told me I would find this topic here.
Somoteitbe, I would advise you to remember here on the internet it is virtually impossible to prove you are a Freemason, as it is imposible to prove you are not one, so please do not feel upset if I refuse to talk about something.

Finally, if you truly are a Freemason, you may use my flag, Infinite Loop made it for me, I wish it was on a white background though but this is nicer and it breaks up the white of the screen.
