| Re: Hello from The Netherlands
It is difficult for me to understand religious fanaticism in any form. I attended a church a couple of weeks ago because the topic of discussion was the evils of Freemasonry. I made no bones when I walked in that I was a Freemason but I told them the reason I was there was to educate myself, not to argue with them. One of the attendees told me he was not able to judge me that only God could do that, I was a little unsure how to take that but I chose the high road and said he was exactly correct, it was not his place to judge.
I believe strongly in the separation of church and state and I see Freemasonry akin to the state and do not feel religion should come into play at ALL. |
