Woot, my #Freemason initiation ritual is in a little over a week!
@freemo wasn't there a free mason's rule #1 - don't talk about free masonry or something?
Nope, you can talk about it. Generally its frowned upon to advertise or promote with the intention of recruiting. A candidate needs to come to you and ask. Though even this is a debated rule.
There are secrets you cant share, but since I havent been initiated yet I don't know any of those.
@freemo @AncientGood It's not a secret society, it's a society of secrets!
@freemo @AncientGood Do you plan on learning masonry so you are a bonafide Mason?
@freemo Ah ok so that explains why they wouldn't show me how to break a brick with a trowel or how much mortar to use. Thankfully it's not difficult to figure either of those out.
At least I wasn't bludgeoned with a hammer.
@AmpBenzScientist We use those tools all the time, just not for laying bricks :) I dont yet know how they are used, but in some sense in ritual I'd imagine.
@freemo It's going to be weird.
@AmpBenzScientist
Of course not, if they could do good brick work they wouldnt be working for free :)
