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?
@AmpBenzScientist Why else would I join a masonry guild? :)
@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.
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.
@freemo It's going to be weird.
