Are you drunk? Where on Earth do you get your information. You sound like a moron. So I take it you’re Jewish. Your people had Jesus murdered and he was Jewish. No mystery there. Sleep tight knowing that you are complete horse blinded, brainwashed follower of organized religion. It’s funny how religion is responsible for almost every war that ever happened. And that’s the truth. I’ll go have a glass of Jew blood now. Tastes like piss. Bring it, smartass.
LOL. I don’t know whether you’re drunk, joking, or taking this seriously. On the off chance that you’re actually being serious:
You do NOT have to be a 32nd degree Freemason to be a Shriner. The 32nd degree is conferred only in Scottish Rite Freemasonry, which is a completely optional Masonic body that is not connected to the Blue Lodge or the Shrine. You need only be a Master Mason of the regular Blue Lodge to become a Shriner.
Your comment, therefore, suggests that you are neither a Mason nor a Shriner. And your second post after that suggests that you are drunk.
My favorite religious wars are the Falkland War and the Cod Wars.
Wrong sir! Wrong. You drank the fizzy lifting drink so you get nothing. Good day sir! Hahahaha. You have to be a 3rd degree Master Mason in the BLUE LODGE BEFORE you are allowed to go on to the other CONNECTING branchs of masonry. You are clearly not a Freemason or researcher or you would know that. After you get your 3rd degree, lots of us go into the Scottish Rite Masonry because there are higher degrees to get and learn from. They go from the 4th degree to the 33rd degree. So obviously they’re related if you did your homework, which clearly you haven’t. All this IS available online. As far as Shriners go now, For the last countless years you HAD to be a 32nd degree Scottish Rite Mason to even become a Shriner. The last couple years have been different because the Supreme Grand Council changed it so that 3rd degree masons could be Shriners because less Masons were becoming Shriners. This caused an uproar within the fraternity and the numbers haven’t changed since that decision. It should NOT have been done. And for the record, I don’t drink. I will answer anything you want to know but almost all of what I am telling you is online somewhere. I’m actually doing it, and not reading stuff from hate groups. We are NOT a secret society. We are just a society with secrets. Good day.
But its a UL that Shriners drink a lot, right?
Wait, come to think of it . . . I think it’s only the Hasidic Rosicrucians who still do that. A friend invited me to a seder once and there was only goat’s blood (Manischevitz). But he’s Reform, so I’m still not sure.
The Cod Wars were supposed to be a religious war, there was a misprint in the declaration.
Absolutely nothing that you just said contradicts anything that I said! We are just talking past each other! In fact, you yourself in the above post confirmed what I said: currently, you do not need to be a 32nd in the Scottish Rite to be a Shriner, but only a Master Mason.
I have only been in the lodge for a little over a year. I was raised to the 3rd degree on July 3rd of 2010. Obviously they had already changed the policy on the Shrine before I joined. We recently were shown a promotional video for the Shrine at our stated meeting last month (narrated by the great Richard Tyson of Kindergarten Cop!) It certainly never said anything about Scottish Rite being a prerequisite. All Master Masons were encouraged to join.
Pauli P, you have been formally warned for being a jerk. That official reason, in this case, is only a catch-all for any of several other reasons, including trolling and hate speech.
I suggest you re-read the Registration Agreement and the FAQs, and that you take them to heart. Otherwise, your sojourn here will be of limited duration.
Pauli P, how long have you been a Mason and what is your lodge?
Rosicrucians and Guildensternians are Deadians.
No it’s right. My Bible mentions the “Cod of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob”.
Does it also say, “And the greatest of these is hop?”
Hence the Fourth Commandment: Thou shalt not hop on pop.
(Which, I believe, foretold the miracle of the loves and red, blue, one, and two fishes.)
