The Intolerance of "Intolerance" By W. Bro. C Shawn Oak

"If brotherly love, relief, and truth are the foundation stones of Freemasonry, tolerance is the cement that unites them. Yet, in a world that has recorded and/or witnessed increasing tolerance, we as Freemasons are intolerant of much. In many ways, the unacceptable level of intolerance within our lodges makes sense when we observe the efforts to maintain the current status quo. "

This is just one of the many articles and essays at Masonic Dictionary web site. I managed to stumble across this site because I was looking for Masonic meanings and specifically, the meaning of "conversing Masonically". What does it really mean? If you know or have an idea, please share it with me.

To read above full article, please click main title. To read all the other articles and essays on this site, please click on Masonic Dictionary or here.

While the contents of the essays I've read are very good, I can't verify the rest of the articles. So, as always, please read, understand and differentiate or discriminate. Take only what you feel and believe is true.

Happy reading!
