'Charlie' a Freemason spokesman, said the man renting the lodge told the Freemasons he would be hosting a dance party.

The Freemasons said they checked on the party about 1am on Sunday and found nothing suspicious.

However, when officers arrived a little more than an hour later, they found debauchery, police sources told WWMT.

I’m not hiding anything. Just at a loss as to what you expect Freemasonry to do about the Jesters.

Most Grand Lodges refuse to recognize the organization as masonic. Just as they refuse to recognize many organizations that claim to be masonic (e.g. co-ed lodges with female members). That’s about it. They do not control the Jesters.

The Shriners could discourage membership in the Jesters but the Shriners have no control over the Jesters either. At best, they could disavow any affiliation between the two groups and discourage their members from accepting invitations to join the Jesters.

When individual Freemasons commit certain crimes (e.g. embezzlement or murder), the conviction for such a crime is justification for expelling that man from Freemasonry (the Freemason’s local lodge under the authority of the Grand Lodge). That is the remedy on a case-by-case basis that can be imposed.

If a local “blue” lodge committed a serious infraction, the Grand Lodge could suspend or revoke the local lodge’s charter to operate, as well as expel individual members from Freemasonry if warranted.

For example, let’s take the news story that started this thread. If instead of being the misconduct of people who rented the masonic temple (as reported in the story), it turned out to be a party thrown by the local lodge itself for its members, one would expect the Grand Lodge to pursue disciplinary action against the local lodge and its members that were involved with the party.

...there really is no place to be casting stones against anyone when it comes to misconduct of any kind, including sexual.

NONE at all; eh?

Rodney King would have LOVED you!

Your comment makes no sense.

However, it is nice to know that one of Christ’s self-described “ambassadors” is joining the witch hunt against Freemasons. Very Christ-like indeed.

I am?

Upon WHAT evidence do you base your ACCUSATION?
