Hey Staffs, could you resend Morals and Dogma Word format?
My computer recently was reformatted, and my copy went down with it.
Sorry if it's a hassle.

Actually, Morals & Dogma makes excellent bedtime reading. It puts me to sleep even faster than Proust. ;D

Albert Pike's Morals and Dogma is a book on Philosophy and ancient religion as understood by Western Man around the 1860s. A lot of what was thought was true it turns out was mistranslated. It should also be noted that Morals and Dogma is not about the degrees of the Southen Jurisdiction of the Scottish Rite. Those degrees are in the Legenda and Liturgy.
It should also be noted that what Pike wrote in Morals and Dogma were his thoughts and opinions and he specifically said they had no authority in the Southern Jurisdiction or Freemasonry. Pike also knew by the end of the 1870s that some of his earlier conclusions were wrong, based on new translations and further study, but he was too tired to do a revision of his work.
Morals and Dogma is a classic in Victorian literature and it is easier read aloud than to oneself, people of that day were used to being read to and by a dynamic speaker.
Morals and Dogma was given to members of the Scottish Rite until the 1960s and there are a number of copies around for less than $20. An electronic version would be nice if you are dealing with the Anti's who seem to believe that Morals and Dogma is a Masonic Bible of sorts and being able to "cut and paste" passages especially where Pike wrote about Christ would be wonderful.
