Oh ..... the Beehive and Squire Bentley.... the ranting , raving , hater of all Southern "Mainstream" Masonry who loves it way up there on his soap box . He has "consulted" three Florida Past Masters and he can allude to all of Florida lodges are racist !? These three Past Masters can make the claim that all Florida lodges WILL REFUSE TO OPEN , or if already open will close if a black (mainstream) Mason from New York shows up ?
So he "hears" stories , "consults" THREE Florida Past Masters and this is fact !? PLEASE .
ETA: I have heard many stories concerning PHA . I have heard they go around Trying one another and if one fails to answer questions properly , then they have their property taken away .
I have heard that they are BIG into hazing their candidates .
And I have consulted with PHA Masons on the internet who claim this is true and even support it . My Marine Corps buddy who is a PHA Mason in a Southern state told me in private that some of the members of his lodge would never allow a white man in his lodge . So it must be true then for all PHA Masonry , correct !? No , it is not . I will take what they say with a grain of salt . It might go on in a few lodges but it is not practiced by all PHA Masons .
