Part 3, The Masonic Philosophy:

Upon this philosophy Masonry rests, and finds a rock beneath:

On Him, this corner-stone we build.
On Him, this edifice erect:
And still, until this work's fulfilled,
May He the workman's ways direct.

Just finished The Builders: Wow!

It's a hoot. I have a hard copy of the 1917 print. I can no longer count the number of hours that I spent going form one topic to another.

I can get lost in it and it raises more questions each time I do.

I am about half way through Solomon's Builders: Fremasons, Founding Fathers and the Secrets of Washington D.C. and I really like it so far. I especially liked the section about Major General Gilbert Lafayette. I knew he was influential in the Revolutionary War but, Bro. Hodapp's book showed me what a truly inspirational figure he was.

Does anyone know of a good biography about Lafayette?

They are great and reading them before you see the movie is definitely the way to go.

My wife agrees. I've never read the books, but she likes to point out the differences from the books and the movies. The movies are great, the books are even better according to her.

She says you are in for a treat Ashlar!

I just received the three books from Dr. Nagy. I started reading Building Hiram. very enlightening stuff!

Just finished another of James Patterson novels. If you don't know who he is, he is the author who wrote "Kiss the girls" and "Along came a spider" which were made into movies. I started reading his novels about 4 years ago, and to be honest, when I start one of his, I find it tough to put down. I suggest checking him out if you haven't already. He writes extremely well, and very entertaining.

The only movie that I did not like was the fourth. I did not like all of the things that were cut out. But I guess that is what you get when you try to make a 600 page book into a movie.
