Whence Came You? - Freemasonry Discussed And Masonic Research For Today's Freemason

This week, we're exploring the concept of death as humans understand it. Removing all religious dogma, we follow an article founded in reason that tells us the truth--the cure for death...perhaps, is a revelation into its true nature. We also speak about the most misunderstood Tarot card ever...probably. :) Thanks for listening, and have a great week!

This week we're looking at a paper by the Managing Editor of the Midnight Freemasons, Darin A. Lahners. In this piece, he breaks apart a wonderful short paragraph on the expectations of being a Freemason. However many of the things espoused as being expectations are not followed by many within our Craft today. Are these expectations even relevant? Should they be heeded? Is an expectation within Freemasonry even "brotherly?" Thanks for listening and have a fantastic week!
