Guest Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 I just had an awesome Monday after which I sat down to figure out this one. Our origins are something of mystery and debates. Accepting only those with certain traits. Your beliefs may help guide you in your task. How we do not care but are obligated to ask. Some view us with suspicion and disdain. Though with our help even fewer will complain. Our symbol is known both far and wide. Even though some may think somethings we hide. You can grace our house if you wish to see. But remember to our rules you must agree. If you accept, count the steps, three. And when you are completed, then you can see. Ok I hope I did this riddle some justice and not confused anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 TrickyThief you are 100% correct I had just gotten back from one of our Raisings and well I was definately in the mood to create a riddle. I am a Master Mason and treasurer for Teikoku Lodge #19, Okinawa Japan Our origins are something of mystery and debates. -- The exact date of when FreeMasonry was created is debated by many Accepting only those with certain traits. -- You must be a male, free born, over 21, good character, and believe in somekind of higher power (ie: cannot be an atheist) Your beliefs may help guide you in your task. -- Must believe in some kind of higher power for the teachings to truly mean something How we do not care but are obligated to ask. -- Your actual beliefs do not matter (I am Wiccan and a FreeMason) Some view us with suspicion and disdain. -- Some people view Masonry as a secret society or something to fear Though with our help even fewer will complain. -- Though you will never hear anybody bad mouth the charities or the Shriner Hospitals Our symbol is known both far and wide. -- The Square and Compass is everywhere in almost every country Even though some may think somethings we hide. -- FreeMasonry is a believed to be a Secret Society, if you search the web you can find out a lot though You can grace our house if you wish to see. -- For most lodges there are open houses and to join a lodge all you have to do is ask But remember to our rules you must agree. -- Obviously to join you must meet the above rules and follow the rules of the lodge If you accept, count the steps, three. -- In the Blue house of a lodge there are 3 steps or degrees. Even Shriners, Scottish Rite or York Rite have made through these first three steps. And when you are completed, then you can see. -- Once you have reached Master Mason you are able to see much more.
