I remember being told it was no longer the time or place to discuss those things, so I wouldn't say I have ignored anything.
Once discussions were no longer about opinion, and exploring a topic, but having my word judged for its worth, and linking to the words of others EXCLUSIVELY ("What web site gave you your opinion? Which Masonic author did you misinterpret? If you aren't in Masonry right now, how can you talk? If you are in Masonry, you are dishonorable for mentioning anything that IS factual and personal experience").
And it seems members of the most Symbolically Represented Organization in the world (more than any one country or company internationally) have no interest in their own symbolism. How unfortunate, but why keep others from discussing it?
Why suggest numerology is only important to me, when clearly MANY Masons in the past have found it equally important, and how can you deny the symbolism in the measurement systems, of temperature, and distance?

You know what, I don't even know why I post in response to you. I'm going to keep PROVING my own thing, and I am going to keep interpreting symbolism for myself.
Connections, links, coincidences, similarities, friendships and business deals between members of Elite organizations will still be under my scrutiny, and just because the majority of Freemasons are not Elite does not mean I will be letting them off the hook with the GOOD ONES! As I've said, I don't blame the good ones for defending the bad ones, they hardly know what they are doing.
Now, where did the Continental Flag come from? No one knows, oh greatest of great mysteries! Hmm, its a union jack with 13 red and white stripes horizontally. 3 specific elements, if you will.
Well, what was the flag of the British East India Company that virtually ruled India for a few hundred years?
It is known from ATLEAST 1700, it flew ONLY a flag of 13 red and white stripes, with a union jack in the corner! Turns out the British East Indian Company had been using the red and white stripes for quite a while, and they alternated between 9 and 13 stripes depending mainly on if the flag was square or rectangular.
It is also known the US had a unique flag from 1795-1818, 23 years with 15 stripes truly representative of the country. But afterwards by Presidential decree it was changed back to 13 stripes! By a confirmed MASON. Never mind his wife was from a super-rich British family (the family which BRIGHAM YOUNG was from)...
Need I touch on why 1313 was important to the Knights Templar, who have MORE than a tenuous link with Freemasonry's origins (esp. in relation to its use of symbolism)..
Wouldn't you know it, President Monroe (mason) and President Nixon are related. And you know, this surely ties in with the Bilderbergers, but its not even hard, so I won't go there.
But I will relate one final quote "to the memory of William Morgan a captain in the war of 1812, a martyr to the freedom of writing, printing and speaking the truth.
He was abducted from near this spot in the year of 1826, by Freemasons, and murdered for revealing the secrets of their order. The court records of Genesee County, and files of the Batavia Advocate, kept in the recorder's office, contain the history of the events that caused the erection of this monument, September 13, 1882.
The bane of our civil institutions is to be found in Masonry, already powerful and daily becoming more so. I owe to my country an exposure of its dangers." - Captain William Morgan.
Dangers. Not inherent flaws. Not everything wrong. Just not something that you could 'love or leave' something that might need external review, and re-structuring. I mean, its not the Knights of the Garter, or something sacred.

Sebat, I can believe you are unable to follow the conversation of the thread. I didn't believe it at first, but now, you convinced me.
Regardless, you finally gave me a straight answer to my question. That is now cleared up. Thank you.

I still don't understand what I did to have you bully me, insult me and try to intimidate me in this thread...?

Sometimes I think you give too much evidence and people just ignore it.
So I reduced it to a palatable form.
Prominent Freemason Harry S. Truman, 33rd degree, 33rd president of the USA, became President exactly on cue to usher in a new era.
If you count 13 periods of 13 years(169 years from 1776-1945) (using the amount of steps in the Pyramid, of course!) from the Declaration of Independence, you find yourself on July 4, 1945. Count 33 days. You find yourself on the one day most symbolic of an ENTIRE era, that there could possibly be, the dropping of the Atomic Bomb on the 33 parallel, on Mission 13 (arbitrary!) by the Enola Gay.
Whats further, its no coincidence on what day George Washington was sworn in. As if it couldn't happen any day they want?
"Brother Washington became Worshipful Master on December 20, 1788, and was inaugurated President of the United States on April 30, 1789, thus becoming the first, and so far the only, Brother to be simultaneously President and Master of his Lodge."
OK, one is the day before the Winter Equinox (Master of his Lodge), the DARKEST day of the year, and who is receiving the light on that day, oh good Brother Washington.
Ok and the other, one day before May 1st (May day for the May Sons), the MOST important date in Occult sacrifice, and 'forcing the Spring' (ie. a new beginning). The Rite of Beltane, also called Roodmas (similar to Christmas, which was a few days after Washington's inauguration).
If you guys think EVERYTHING happens due to coincidence, all the power to you. I refuse to believe that possibility, and thus, am perceived by others to look 'where there is nothing'.

Its the 33rd degree.
Reference a globe, buddy.
SYMBOLISM IS NOT OWNED by Societies, it is used by them. They give the 2nd meaning to their members, and the 3rd meaning is reserved for outsiders.
Why is 33 degrees Fahrenheit important?
Every important location I listed? You mean the location of the FIRST Grand Lodge in the United States, is on the 33rd degree?
And President Kennedy's Assasination?
Why is 13 inches exactly 33 centimetres?
Its all a coincidence... In your reality
