Well, I dern’t know about y’all, but there ain’t nothing wrong with white folks wanting to hang around other white folks. Blacks do this all the time, with the Black Caucus, Black Panthers, Black Brootherhood, and whatnot.

Why can’t white folks be allowed to gather and meet with just white folks without folks demonizing them?

I’ve been browsing on-line more than 3 hours today, yet I by no means found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth sufficient for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content material as you did, the net can be much more useful than ever before.

Blake, the challenge comes when those without the racist leanings allow those with them make decisions. Its in those instances that the perception of the events can cast it in a particular light. I agree, not all Georgians are racist, that it quite probably the truest of statements. But from the readings and opinions of the piece, it seemed some believed there to be overtones of racism afoot which marred the situation.

Facts should be checked throughly before reporting. In this case, the writer of this article has wrongly labled Georgia masons. It is just as wrong to falsely accuse a group as racist. It stands to the credit of the Grand Lodge of Georgia that the Grand master has declared that the black man is a Georgia mason. Clearly one of the best move made by the Georgia Grand Lodge. The writer of this article and other writers around the country have seized up the opportunity to further the hatred by accusing Georgia masons of beinig racist. No doubt that there are some Georgia masons that can be considered racist just as there are in every Grand Lodge around the world. We do not live in a perfect world. Every one of us has predjudices against something.
Those who clamour for recognition seldom deserve it, while those who work diligently and quietly to promote the well being of all men seldom get recognized.
Georgia is not a racist state. It has like all states, some racist thinking people. Let he who is without blame cast the first stone. Honest reportinig should include the whole story.

White Freemasonry is a joke and a sham that professes to believe in Universal BH and discriminates! Hypocritical! Besides that, the origin of Freemasonry prior to England is in the Mystery Systems of Egypt (Africa) and in teMen Houses of Africa. Ever wonder why Shriners make themselves darker by donning make-up! Come on, enough already!

However I really dont expect white masons to accept this. Light? Please. They couldnt recognize the TRUE LIGHT if it suddenly appeared in a dark, pitch Black room.

As a matter of fact, most of the Southern racist Masons imposter Masons cant even read their rituals, due to illteracy, let alone comprehend the true “mysteries” of the Craft….A joke.

Your time is up……

The bottom line here is that there is no place for “Racism” in Freemasonry, period, end of discussion. Some say that the WM of Gates lodge violated his Masonic oath and obligation when he raised a “Black Man.” First, for this to occur, there must be a race “Prohibition” in the Grand Lodge of Georgia’s laws, rules and regulations. If so, then the WM is in violation of such laws, rules and regulation. However, if there is such a law, rule and regulation in the Grand Lodge of Georgia’s bylaws, then it is “Racist” and not only immoral, but unethical and illegal. However, it such a law, rule or regulation does not exist, then the WM of Gates lodge did nothing wrong whatsoever. If so, then those who pressed Masonic charges against the WM are “Racist” and they should be brought under Masonic charges. The bottom line is that the WM of Gate Lodge did nothing wrong, therefore, there exist either both a racist code in the Grand Lodge of Georgia’s laws, rules or regulations, and/or racist that are protecting the status quo in that state. Eitherway, the Masonic charges were dropped by the Grand Master of Georgia and rightfully so, because he knows what occurred was wrong both morally, ethically and legally. End of discussion.
