Other - Cultures & Groups - October 2006

I am interested in the Freemasons, and I am considering asking 2 friends who are Masons (one 3rd Degree, one 32nd Scottish Rite) about petitioning. However, I am a bit afraid of joining because of society's views of "secret societies" and what my friends and family may think.

I am fascinated with history, and I have a particular interest in conspiratorial or other than textbook views of history; and the Freemasons and Knights Templar have been occupying a bit of my interest recently. Therefore, I thought that it might be interesting to join the Masons.

Any suggestions?
Anyone a Freemason that can or will comment?
Should I be worried about joining?

SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE.

shouldt hate Voodoo or Hoodoo or even diasporic African traditional Religions? I mean We were enslaved and Christianity was forced upon us. We had no choice but to choose jesus at fear of being lynched, Whipped and/or tortued. We had to hide our practices and thats how we have modern day Santeria and/or Voodoo. But all inall this is our culture and our heritage. This worked for our people and continues to work for our people. There was no devil involved. This is not devil worship as Christians will have you believe. YOu are worshiping Yahway and Jesus, these are jeweish/Hebrew names not some universal name. These were the names the hebrews gave their God. While I do respect the jewish God/Gods I also love and respect My African Ones. DOnt preach to me either on here! African Practices and religion was around way b4 Christianity ever was even thought of. YOu came along and spread you superiority complex on your followers!

Being there for a little over a year in the US Army with 1st Infantry Division I found a good comparison of Iraq to another part of the world... the US to be more specific. For those that haven't been to Iraq (fortunately for you), a good comparison of Iraq (to me at least) would be Compton, CA. There are 2 minor exceptions though: insurgents don't wear wifebeater tank tops and pants that hang around their knees... and they're middle-eastern not african-american. Other than that, it's pretty similar... of course the cause for the violence is pretty different too but I assumed that would be obvious and would require no explanation. Would that be a fair comparison???

I do have a biological gender, but I can neither identify with my own gender nor the opposite gender. I feel like I'm somewhere in the middle, kind of genderless or something, and I don't seem to fit into any group, I'm always the freak who is nothing like the rest. I have never met anyone who understands this. Does somebody else here feel like this, like you don't have any gender identity at all?

Does someone know---apparently these cult members have beautiful temples and lots of money, but they treat their women like dirt. E.g. during prayers, women are not allowed on the same floor as men, they have to sit one level below; they cannot eat unless all the men have eaten.

She said this cult is from India, and is a very powerful cult. When my friend talked to some women who were treated in this manner, she was told many women complained but the men told them to shut up. Apparently the head man of this cult has ordered this.

Is this true? How are the women putting up with this? Or are they totally subjugated in this cult?

This is a question to those interested in the changing dynamics of sexual roles. Only a half-century has passed since the icons of male /Female relations have passed from "Father Knows Best', "Leave It to Beaver", "I Love Lucy" and the "Nelsons" to "Sex in the City". Paladin and Hercules has been superceded by Buffy and Xena. The next 50 years, with proliferation of technology and the new generation of empowered Females, may likely cause an even more accelerated upheaval of the past sexual hierarchy... use your imagination, intellect and intuition... what do you think is in store for the world and the sexes in it after 2056?
