Like fart jokes about goats farting? Ok, a bit unusual, but im up for that.

@freemo wasn't there a free mason's rule #1 - don't talk about free masonry or something?

@AncientGood

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 that was partially a joke, but you answered my question I was shy to ask :D

@freemo @AncientGood Do you plan on learning masonry so you are a bonafide Mason?

@freemo Of the Free Masons I've met, I never met one who could do brick work.

The Rose and Cross is where it's at.

@AmpBenzScientist

Of course not, if they could do good brick work they wouldnt be working for free :)

@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.

@niclas I would assume due to the no atheists rule? I find that rule to be a shame personally.

@freemo
Yes. A close friend of mine weaseled through with a Spinosa position of God and Nature are the same thing and was accepted in Kuala Lumpur. Can't recall if "Ethics" was his "holy book", or if he chose something from Aristotle.
