Re: Are any of you a mason :D?
I know of only one member of my family who was briefly a junior member. I've never seen any family photos of anyone belonging to the Freemasons or anything like it.
The Masons are not a big deal in Poland are they?

Re: Are any of you a mason :D?
I have no idea. I know my great grand-father was one (the great lodge of Yugoslavia), but that's it.

Re: Are any of you a mason :D?
Some guy who I really, really hate is a mason. But I didn't start to hate him for this. I just did.

Re: Are any of you a mason :D?
I am not, and have long since "cleansed" all known Freemasons within a 5 mile radius of my home
 I do now some "ex"-Masons, however. Other than that, my father simply manipulated many of them for business purposes. Well, if they thought he was one of them, then that was entirely their own fault.......
