I totally agree Palemoon, I know of three people who joined the Masons and quite openly admitted they did so to further their own business interests and they all did very well out of it.

Please, Masons, stop hiding behind the 'charity card' and tell the truth.
well put, would love to know how many masons are on the dole wink

It's the emoji for thumbs up, I guess he posted from a mobile.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

We don't do charity in Germany, we pay taxes. Charity is a failure of governments' responsibilities - Henning Wehn

Thanks for that gem of wisdom, DD. I was beginning to think I had a secret admirer. Shucks ! Always the bridesmaid, never the bride cry

Tut tut - we don't hide behind anything. Giving to charity isn't the only treason to join. Those who are not or never been members of a lodge wouldn't know..

I didn't say I joined to support my family - not sure sure where that came from!

I would like to think I am old, wise and patient enough to ensure any perceptions I have (about things) are proven before I consider them reality!
