This seal should be clubbed to death

But seriously fols- Did anyone else notice it still contains the Masonic Square and Compass symbols? (I know- I am a Mason)

"It looks just like hell," Janssen said.

How utterly ironic. Maybe that is why the cow is on the seal?

Do you know how Masons know when another Mason is in a Bar?

They yell, "Hey! any Masons in here?"

That's interesting.

They LEFT the Mason's symbol in the "new" (socialistic) seal, specifically and deliberately removed the cross from the seal, and LEFT in place the star and arc that now seems to generically represent the "star" of Stalinist Soviet Union.

Of course, the "new" building isn't "really" a mission - it's sort of generically nothing - other than a monument to government.

It becomes more like an Islamic symbol!

Notice the original "goddess" (Mary in an attitude of repose and peace, with a classic Grecian/European toga?) was replaced with an Indian/Aztec Mexican SUN GODDESS (wavey sun rays, Indian features and Mexican/Indian robe, Mexican CORN meal and Mexican-style dish instead of American wheat sheaves) with a sophomoric "smiley face" of fifth grade caricature ?

Of course, the original "rainbow" (without the cross and constellation) now becomes a gay symbol and Islamic/Soviet stars!

Grecian/European toga?)


My understanding is that the original was the Roman goddess "Pomona"...
I guess representing the fruit-growing industry...

Is it meant to make fun of people who think it is some sort of evil hidden society?

A Mason friend of mine told me the joke it makes sense to me.
