Mollyl , I'm kind of curious . Is your husband thinking of becoming a Freemason ? Or is this simply to get a better understanding of our fraternity ? I think it's great that you've taken an interest in Masonry , especially so if your husband wants to join us and you want to be more informed .
I only ask this because , not long ago , we initiated a young man and then never heard from him again . When I called to check on him he informed me that his wife would not allow him to go any further and made him drop out because she thought we were a cult . The only information she looked at was from anti-masonic web sites and took them for their word without looking into both sides of the issue .
