FREEMASONRY: A UNIVERSE OF ACCELERATING EXPANSION AND UNENFORCEABLE PHYSICS.

Come to think of it, a great deal of attention is focused on masonic weather. Does the broader climate issues of Masonry effect Masonic weather patterns? If it does, what are the indicators of that C-change?   No one would fault us for failing to take in the gestalt. Not likely that you or I will be chided for that.  Too often we become self-conscious by an erudite give and take which would take us to think on broader terms. It is much easier to look back at Culloden and determine why we lost. Hindsight is generous like that.  Wrong season. Wrong choice of battleground. Logistical problems with reinforcements creating a vulnerability to be exploited. Overwhelming strike force.  Likely a combination. But imagine that we leave the battlefield for a moment and calculate the short and long-term impact. Hindsight may have reduced conjecture on the subject but clearly, it remains a hot debate.  Enter stage left, a crowd of unconventional men who sparked interest in philosophical, metaphysical, political and insight. They were unique to their time. If you subscribe to the idea that all greatness comes for talent, you won't be pleased with an opinion that suggests talent is a term that refers to hard work and imagination. What some men call genius, and the spectator sport that grows from that perspective gets gutted by this notion; that you and I are not excused because we aren't one of the chosen genii.  Not at all. We are participants who, with hard work and imagination are capable of so much more than mediocrity. And in our heart of hearts, were secrets not revealed are kept- we know this for a fact. No praise. No recruitment. If you step forward, you will be properly encouraged and exposed to brilliance. What you take from the experience, what you learn or do not learn, whether you grow because you begin to understand and acknowledge 'self' is completely unenforceable. Unenforceable. Diabolical.
