-------------- MYTH --------------
“Once we have broken free of the prejudices of our own provincially
limited ecclesiastical, tribal, or national rendition of the world
archetypes, it becomes possible to understand that the supreme
initiation is not that of the local motherly fathers, who then project
aggression onto the neighbors for their own defense. The good news,
which the World Redeemer brings and which so many have been glad to
hear, zealous to preach, but reluctant, apparently, to demonstrate, is
that God is love, the He can be, and is to be, loved, and that all
without exception are his children.
"Such comparatively trivial matters
as the remaining details of the credo, the techniques of worship, and
devices of episcopal organization (which have so absorbed the interest
of Occidental theologians that they are today seriously discussed as the
principal questions of religion), are merely pedantic snares, unless
kept ancillary to the major teaching. Indeed, where not so kept, they
have the regressive effect: they reduce the father image back again to
the dimensions of the totem. And this, of course, is what has happened
throughout the Christian world. One would think that we had been called
upon to decide or to know whom, of all of us, the Father prefers.
Whereas, the teaching is much less flattering: 'Judge not, that ye be
not judged.' The World Savior's cross, in spite of the behavior of its
professed priests, is a vastly more democratic symbol than the local
flag.”

amazing how many Freemasons won't accept anything said or written
about
the Craft

some widely accepted Conjecture

The Infamous “Third Degree.” Whence comes the term, “the third degree”? From the Inquisition, of course! It was all a matter of the nature and duration of the torment. The first degree involved cutting off the victim’s clothing and showing him the instruments of torture. The second started the torture itself, to be sustained no longer than the time it took for an inquisitor to recite a single Ave Maria or Pater Noster—probably about one minute. The third degree was full torture itself, and without such time limits.
But there were more! The fourth degree called for more torture yet, such as jerking the ropes of the strapado, with its inevitably horrendous agony. And finally, in the fifth degree— reserved for the heroic holdouts—there were no limits. Limbs might be torn out of sockets, with the victims perishing on the tables of torture, even though it was not supposed to go that far.
