-------------- HUMOR --------------
When you carefully consider
all the countless difficulties, challenges and problems
all Lodges have keeping things going,
you soon realize how ridiculous any claim
that Freemasons rule the world actually is.
Such claims when taken seriously
Such claims when taken seriously
show more arrogant ignorance
than actual truth.

To Find the Truth,
Know The Difference between
Picking a Fantasy and
Picking at a Fantasy.
It pays to be picky!
-------------- ALLEGORY-------------- 
Pursuing "Eureka!":
The
Lodge is not any Building
or any Group who perform Ritual therein.
Far
too many Brothers see it this way though
and for them,
that is all that a
Lodge can be.
-------------- CHARACTER --------------
Big Disappointment Comes
From Learning How Few Men
Join Our Great Fraternity
To Better Themselves.
Even Greater When it is You!
-------------- MYTH --------------
"It once was possible for the ancients to say,
\'We are the chosen of God!'
and to save all love and respect for themselves,
projecting their malice 'out there.'
We have now to learn somehow to quench our hate and disdain
through the actual operation of love . . .
and with that fructify,
simultaneously, both our neighbor's life and our own."

-------------- DEAL --------------
There is an unusually large cross-section of Craft members
who have no clue at all as to what the Fraternity
can do for Brothers who want to become Better men.
They honestly believe that being a Member is all that is necessary.
Sadly, they act as if those who do have a clue
actually don't
and Condemn them for making any Sustained Effort
to Realize Betterment for themselves.
Dealing with these Brothers is one of the things
clued Brothers must become Better at
should they wish to remain sane and not lose heart.
Let's all pray for betterment.

-------------- PURSUE --------------
Pursuing "Eureka!":
a Task Best Left
to those Radically Unsatisfied
with Mundane Superficialities.

THE SUMMONS SILENCED!
"...He then scooped up the other embers with the ash shovel
and put them in an ash bucket,
closed its heavy lid down upon it,
and sealed them off from the natural draft.
He sat back and enjoyed the warm glow of the remaining ember,
now flared up in brilliant glow due to the swift flow of the flue draft...."
