Blue Lodge is the basic Masonry, Scottish Rite or Knights Templar are two paths up to the Shriners. You are probably familiar with the Shriners’ Hospitals and Clowns, and the charity of the Hospitals?
Thank you for the info. I had learned about them a while back, but just forgot how it went.
Yes, who hasn’t heard of the hospitals, etc.
Btw, I’m not asking because of a personal interest in being part of the Masonic community (Eastern Star). I have none.
Your post just jogged my memory a bit. Now I recall what I learned long a go. (It can be so discouraging when what I oughtta know, I don’t remember.)
