National Treasure it is NOT!

[BereanBrain]

I believe National Treasure implies that Freemasons are a POSITVE influence on our country.

Anybody that knows the TRUTH about Freemasonry rather than the propaganda they wrap themselves in will NOT be takin in by the positive portrayal in this movie.

Please America, wake up, don't buy into the guys who brought "Seperation of Church/State" to America, model ISLAM as the highest truth (the Shriners), label the Holy Bible as "Furinture" in a lodge, and outlaw the name of "Jesus" in any lodge.

I know I will get flamed by 10,000 Masons and Mason supporters on this, but if you want to know the TRUTH read what was the only book given to EVERY mason until just recently - MORALS AND DOGMA by Albert Pike. it is 800 pages, but the truth about masonry can be found from their own lips.

BTW, Albert Pike is the BIG man in Masonry in the US - and he just also happened to found the KKK. Again, using religion to achieve his social purposes.

[BereanBrain]

You are indeed right.

But check out how VITRIOLIC the flame was back on the Freemason side....

you can detect the gay/liberal bias, now open your eyes to the Freemason propaganda machine, which includes the "Shriner" good works program.

I am NOT afraid of any masons - they should be afraid that there IS a God and he is NOT something to be tampered with.

(By the way - I'm a 249th degree FreeMason, and I know where you live...)

Yes Chad we do.

Signed a 250th degree Mason.

F-911 was pure propaganda. "National Treasure" is pure entertainment. Big difference.

[My2Cents]

There seems to be enough vitriol on both sides.

Au contraire, mon ami.

(Just a little French lingo there to prove I bear no animosity towards frogs...properly prepared their legs are delicious.)

Yelling cukoo to the Admin Mod is childish.

If he wants a debate...debate!

[BereanBrain]

So, have YOU researched this TOPIC, or are you a MASON, or do you just have an opinion based on movies?

[mc5cents]

I think you are generalizing a bit. Albert Pike might have been a Mason but so was George Washington, Paul Revere, Ben Franklin, Booker Washington, and Martin Luther King were Masons. Were they all part of the conspiracy?

As was my grandfather, who also happened to be deacon in his Presbyterian church and was one of the most decent men and as devout a christian you could have found anywhere. This is BS.

Well my shmucky brother-in-law is a big-whig in the DeMolay.
Plus he's a Yankee fan.

Anecdotal evidence bump!

I wasn't sure I was going to have time to see it, but after that rather pathetic screed, I'm making time to see it.

ARTIST: Ray Stevens
TITLE: Shriner's Convention
Yeah, they come down Main Street, drums a flailing
Sirens a-wailin', what a roar
Bands are a-playin' and flags are a-wavin'
And the vanguard's a motorcycle corps
Clowns are a-clownin' through the crowd and pinchin'
Every pretty girl who dares to smile
It's a glorious mess, everybody wears a fez
The parade stretches out for miles {Refrain}
It's a typical American phenomenon
Where all the members have a fine old time
It's the forty-third annual convention
Of the Grand Mystic Royal Order
Of the Nobles of the Ali Baba Temple of the Shrine Meanwhile back at the Motel Bubba
Operator, give me room three-twenty-one, please. Hello? Noble Lumpkin?
This here's the 'Lustr'ous Potentate. I said it's the 'Lustr'ous
Potentate. The Illustr'ous... Coy? Dad-blame it, this here's Bubba.
Coy, why ain't you at the parade? What? Well, how'd you get that big
Harley up there in your room? What? I cain't hear ya, Coy, quit
revvin' it up, boy. Turn it off. I just want you to know one thing.
You have embarr'ssed us all, the whole Hahira delegation. Now, I'll see
you at the banquet, son, and you be there, Coy, you hear me? Black tie,
seb'n o'clock. Be there, Coy. And Coy, don't answer the phone
Uddn'uddn. Well, it was all arranged by the ladies' auxiliary
In the downtown convention hall
Cold roast beef, string beans, mashed potatoes
And nine boring speeches in all
And all the tables looked fine with their Mogan David wine
And chrysanthemums on each side
And the Hahira leaders in their rented tuxedos
Made the local heart swell with pride {Refrain} Meanwhile back at the Motel Bubba
Operator? Three-twenty-one, please. Thank you. Hello, Coy, what are
you doin'? Whaddaya mean, who is this. This is Bubba. Why wasn't you
at the banquet? Whaddaya mean, all you had to wear was a Ha-waiian
flowerdy shirt? Well, you may think you're foolin' some people, but I
know what's goin' on. Everybody's seen the little red-head. 'At's
right, ever'body. Why, she come runnin' through the dinner, right in
the middle of the pineapple sherbert. Didn't have nothin' on but yer
fez, Coy. Coy, you the only one's got a fez with a propeller on top.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, and she's yellin' out the secret code, too, Coy. We
goin' have to change it now. Dad blame it, Coy, we goin' have to have a
special meetin' we get to Hahira, about yer conduct at this here
convention. Embarr'ssing. Now Coy, you be at the secret conclave
tonight, you hear me? And keep it a secret. Hoo! Well, it was a secret meeting in the dead of the night
With mysterious sanctimony
In accordance with prescribed rituals
A time-honored ceremony
Matters of grave concern were weighed with dedicated caution
Like whether or not to raise at stud
Or draw at spit-in-the-ocean {Refrain} Meanwhile back at the Motel Bubba
Operator, room three-twenty-... H-how'd you know? Oh. Hello, Coy?
Where h-have you been? No-o-o, you wasn't at the meeting. Well, I
found out that at three o'clock this morning you's out there in your
fruit-of-the looms in the motel swimmin' pool, bunch o' them waitresses
from the cocktail hour. Huh, I just hope Charlene don't find out about
this, Coy. What? Well, how'd you get that big motorsickle up there on
the high dive, Coy? Now Coy, dad burnit, that ain't no way to act. We
s'posed to be pillars of the community. 'N we get back to Hahira, you
can just turn in your ring, and your tie-tack. 'Cause Coy, you are out
of the Shrine. You goin' be blackballed, Coy. 'At's right, you may
have t' pack yer bags and leave town. What do you mean, you might join
the Hell's Angels? Coy, hoo, don't you hang up on me. No, don't you
crank that motorsickle. Who's that gigglin' in the background, Coy?
Hello? Hello? Operator, we's cut off. Yeah, room three-twenty-one.
Coy???
