On March 17, 2010 I was initiated as the newest member of Damascus Lodge #10 in Provo. I have been contemplating joining the organization known as Freemasonry for some time now and I finally decided to act. So far, I am loving it. The very first meeting I attended was so full of symbolic instruction and moral allegories that I already cannot wait to attend another meeting. Everything that is taught in Freemasonry inspires to do good and promote brotherhood throughout the world.
There are those who would oppose Freemasonry on the grounds that it is "cultish, secretive, or elitist". What's interesting about these arguments is that no God-faring citizen is denied membership, no matter his social status or religion.
I'm very excited to continue growing and following a path of virtue and honor, primarily through dedication to the church, and secondarily as a member of the greatest fraternity in the world.
Congratulations! I think you are awesome.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard a (valid) criticism of Freemasonry that couldn't also be leveled against the Mormon church.
