What did one have to do to enter the Egyptian Mystery schools? Were you chosen by who you knew? Were you chosen by your pedigree? Was it because you were a statesman, a noble or was it something else?

Let's dig into it and see what some of these requirements might've been.

Some Masters are strong, some are weak and most are mediocre at best. Is there an exercise that can level the playing field for a Master Mason wanting to sit in the East? Is there any hope for the widow's son? Listen and learn what the secret is.

The fraternity does not need more Masons to be led, we need more Masonic leaders to lead them!!!

This is the Way!!!

If you have any information on a different theory on the origins of Freemasonry let me know and we will share it with the listeners to help deepen our understanding of where we came from. Write to me at [email protected] and let's bring further light to the Brethren.

If you have information about a theory of the origins of Freemasonry,

We now get into theory number two on the list of 12 found in the Royal Masonic Cyclopedia of 1877 where we explore the theory that Freemasonry derives from the pagan mysteries.

I read an email from one of my listeners, Worshipful Master Jamey Sterrett from Temple Lodge No. 70 A.F. & A.M. in Texas. The stars shine bright, all through the night, DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS!!!

We get into some pretty serious stuff.

Paganism

Paganism, in the broadest sense, includes all religions other than the true one revealed by God, and, in a narrower sense, all except Christianity, Judaism, and Mohammedanism. The term is also used as the equivalent of Polytheism.

It is derived from the Latin pagus, whence pagani (i.e. those who live in the country), a name given to the country folk who remained heathen after the cities had become Christian – Catholic Encyclopedia 1910

I continue my exploration of the theory that Freemasonry derives from the Patriarchs of the Old Testament in part 4.

We do this from Tijuana in a hotel room that we were staying at. I have a great discussion with Brother Matt Jackson, a Fellowcraft from Palm Springs Lodge No.693.

I ask Matt if he believes what Nesta Webster wrote back in 1923 when she said, “the great mass of the Freemasons do not know or care to know anything about the history of their Order.”

If this is true brethren, then we are in more serious trouble than maybe we thought we were as far as an organization.

I begin to explore the history of physical fitness by reading an article I found on the Art of Manliness Podcast website called “The History of Physical Fitness” by Erwan Le Corre.

Where did this practice come from? How did our ancient ancestors stay in shape? Listen in and find out. But more importantly, why are not more of my brethren getting in the habit of exercising their bodies to be strong pillars of their families, lodges, and society?

We learn about Peary Rader, founder, owner, and editor of Iron Man magazine for 50 years and a devout proponent of the squat and its positive effects on the body and mind. Then we delve into part 2 of the Patriarch Theory of the Origins of Freemasonry and what Anderson’s Constitutions had to say about this time period and legend.

All Grand Lodge actively promote the Transition Theory of Operative Masonry to Speculative Masonry although many researchers who opposed this theory have proven that this is still only a theory. Could this be masonic political correctness?

I introduce the book Super Squats and how groundbreaking it was. One of the best and most tried and true methods to gain muscle is to squat and work hard. This method has been known since the 1940s and was discovered by Joseph Curtis Hise who interestingly enough became known among those men as Brother Hise. Was he a Mason? If you find out let me know so we can let everyone know.

Then we get into the first of the 12 Theories of the Mysterious Origins of Freemasonry that came from the Royal Masonic Cyclopedia which was that Freemasonry was handed down to us for the Patriarchs of the Old Testament.

As we delve into the Patriarch Theory of the Origins of Freemasonry, I read what Anderson’s Constitutions have to say about this very topic.

Secret Societies and Subversive Movements by Nesta Helen Webster 1924

"The origin of Freemasonry," says a masonic writer of the eighteenth century, "is known to Freemasons alone."265 If this was once the case, it is so no longer, for, although the question would certainly appear to be one on which the initiated should be most qualified to speak, the fact is that no official theory on the origin of Freemasonry exists; the great mass of the Freemasons do not know or care to know anything about the history of their Order, whilst Masonic authorities are entirely disagreed on the matter.” Nesta Webster

This enumeration is, however, misleading, for it implies that in one of these various theories, the true origin of Freemasonry may be found. In reality, modern Freemasonry is a dual system, a blend of two distinct traditions--of operative masonry, that is to say, the actual art of building, and of speculative theory on the great truths of life and death.As a well-known Freemason, the Count Goblet d'Alviella, has expressed it: "Speculative Masonry" (that is to say, the dual system we now know as Freemasonry) "is the legitimate offspring of a fruitful union between the professional guild of mediæval Masons and of a secret group of philosophical Adepts, the first having furnished the form and the second the spirit."268 In studying the origins of the present system we have therefore (1) to examine separately the history of each of these two traditions, and (2) to discover their point of junction.

“ORIGIN OF FREEMASONRY. —Several theories have been promulgated on this subject, and we have partly discussed the subject— (see Antiquity of Freemasonry.) It may be convenient, however, to summarize the theories for reference. 1. Masonry derived from the Patriarchs, 2. From the Mysteries of the Pagans. 3. From the Construction of King Solomon’s Temple. 4. From the Crusades. 5. From the Knights Templar. 6. From the Roman Collegia of Artificers, 7. From the Operative Masons of the the Middle Ages. 8. From the Rosicrucian’s of the sixteenth century. 9. From Oliver Cromwell. 10. From Prince Charles Stuart, for political purposes, 11. From Sir Christopher Wren, at the building of St Paul’s. 12. From Dr. Desaguliers and his friends in 1717. It is hardly necessary to express any opinion on the point; the Fraternity has the advantage of being able to choose for itself, and as Masonry is now worked, any decision on the point is as impossible, as the value of that decision would be futile.” P537
