Colonel Cancer posted:What are they gonna do, entomb me alive behind a wall of shoddy masonry? Binch I'm an escape room champion [TRIGGER WARNING: Gruesome details of a real life 'orrible murder, guvna. (But without victim photos, unlike the book I mention below... at least they were in B & W.)] They might cut out your intestines and throw them over your left shoulder, according to some accounts. (Also, I believe, in their oath of anonymity on joining, Masonry candidates are obliged to invite their own guts to be simlarly spilt, should they spill the beans. Of course they're sworn to secrecy about the oath, but I've read a number of exposé books by ex-members.) I read a book I read many years ago that claimed this was one brutal act done by Jack The Ripper to one of his victims. It made the case that the Ripper was a Freemason performing ritual killings to throw the scent off some serious royal scandal (the prince killing a prostitute by being too rough with her or something, I forget those details). The book claimed that all Freemasons of high enough degree (30-something) worshipped a "god" who was a combination of Osiris and Baal, and practised human sacrifice (as did some priests of those deities in olden days). I googled this just now, and see that apparently the Ripper victim in question had her guts thrown over the wrong shoulder. Also, from what I've read from actual Freemasons (e.g. in Ask/Tell on SA), there is no Freemasonry-wide concept of God, except as The Great Architect etc., though it varies some by temple. (Freemasonry is, as I understand it, open to men of all theistic religions.) They seem like a benign enough bunch to me (Freemasons not Rippers), though no doubt certain Freemasons gave done bad, bad things, as with any large cohort. Edit: Minor edits.

I think the Kiwanis are the real bitch of this whole thing. They got their mouth open, actin like they’ll suck anything, but then they got their chin all jutted out and their head cocked back, looking up at nothing. And what’s the best position you can attain? Being the master masons loving lackey. Literally just sucking dicks for the top dog. I think they just try to find people who aren’t gently caress ugly to go out and recruit, but they can’t use ram, they can’t use the gears. Basically not a Freemason but sucking dick for Freemasons.

If Freemasonry is not real does that mean I'm legally allowed to steal those little go karts the Shriners are always driving around? I'd look loving sick in a go kart.

I got invited to a masonic lodge in Cleveland and was curious but the guy who invited me was a total nerdlinger so I just got drunk by myself for 6 years instead.

Welp, anyways, pyramids are some busted rear end pieces of poo poo with poo poo falling off of them and there’s like zero space inside so it’s basically just a hill of rocks with a dorky little tunnel that any rear end in a top hat with a scaffold and a keystone coulda threw up like easy.

I went to a temple once. The front room was being used for a wedding reception. It was plain and drab, but still a good party. I was with my sister and a friend of hers when a junior member of the lodge joined the conversation. After a bit he offers a tour of the main temple. Um, okaaay, sure. We go into the second half of the lodge, and it's a room covered in purple/mauve velvet carpeting; floors and walls. I was hoping to see paintings of goat headed gods and pentagrams but there were just a couple of the masonic symbols. No sacrifice altars, no abattoirs . Totally lame. There were nice chairs around 3 sides of the room and a podium at the front. That was it. He showed us a side room that was an office with a computer and desk, and the closet space where all the robes were. I asked him, "so what do you guys do when you meet?" His reply was that they said a few prayers and chants together, then would play poker/blackjack while smoking cigars and drinking whiskey and beer. It was essentially an escape for these dudes to get away from wives and families for a night. To their credit they did run a couple of charity drives each year. One for a children's hospital and one for cancer research. Otherwise it was just a good-ole-boys club most of the time.

My granddad was a freemason. One of my buddies was too before he killed himself. I always thought I'd look into it as well, but I'm not a big fan of killing myself. stealthedit - oh yeah, I have like a little freemason guide book from like the 50s or something. Not nearly as interesting as you'd expect.

That’s how most guys I know got involved with it, join for the excuse to get out of the house for a while, stick around for the charity work and philosophy. Honestly there are worse reasons to join.
