Glad to be of assistance Bro Brad. Hands across the sea, as they say.

Personally I feel that a moratorium could be sensible with each of your agreeing to differ, you and GO of USA proceeding as it may, and Bro Theron in his Grand Lodge doing likewise. Yeah Bro what a great idea

Dude. To my knowledge the lodges of the Grand orient are 3000 miles away from you. I'm not even sure hat you have a lodge, but it must be bound to someone else. Well Errol, perhaps you should get on a flight sometime and check things out for yourself. I will be happy to pick you up and show you around. Brad www.grandorientusa.comI will be in San Diego next July, visiting my cousin Tony. He and I are going to try to find a lodge that will take us both, he being a Phillipino Prince Hall Mason, and me not. I might just take you up on that.

No big deal. What we have seen in the last few pages is Brad trying to have the last word and denigrate anyone that dares not to agree with him. Why not, as you just suggested, let us each be entitled to our own opinions and move on? See this is kind of funny, Bro. Theron. From my perspective it is you who appears to be trying to have the last word and to denigrate Bro. Brad for not agreeing with you. As this thread is about his Blog, I suggest if anyone is entitled to the last word, it is he. Philip if you would care to trace and quote the exact offense you wish to complain about I will bring it to the attention of the other mods on your behalf. As is the usual procedure. For the record, I had provided an instance (since deleted) which is now being considered by the mods. I say this lest readers assume my observation (not in itself a complaint) had been without foundation (the request for elaboration had been in public rather than by PM).

The funny thing is I was ripped apart by the Masonic blog police (is there a special ribbon for that? ;D ) for cutting and pasting this blog but not a peep out of my original blog that followed. There is just no pleasing some people. ;D ;D Brad www.grandorientusa.org

No Brad, its not about pleasing... there was nothing to say about your second post. Sometimes its really not all about you. And you weren't "ripped apart" you received criticism about claiming to make a blog entry that was simply cut and paste... and not even giving credit for the space you copied and pasted from. Some would have gone on the attack and noted it was plagiarism. You weren't attacked. You don't seem to take criticism very well, for one who is very willing to sling it... Just a thought. G-d bless. ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......

Bro Leo. I feel that Bro Theron is deliberately winding Bro Brad up. This reminds me of the kid who persists in annoying a dog behind the fence by running his stick along the railings making it bark. One day the gate is open and the dog comes round the fence and bites the kid. Then of course its all the dog's fault , not the kid's.
As I have said elsewhere there is no change of a meeting of minds on this matter. Thereon is obviously delighted by recent developments and is being a bit triumphalist about it. Fair enough, he has won the first quarter.
As to how things transpire may well depend on the Law Courts in Ohio assuming either side presses suit. As this matter is sensitive I would rather not be drawn into that, hence my deleting an earlier post on the "Same Stripe" Thread.
As all that seems to be happening is that Theron is goading Brad, I feel the latter is quite right to reply with a load of ZZZZZZZZZZs or even better not to react or reply at all, although I know how annoying Bro Theron can be at times.

OK, thanks Bro. Steve. Having revisited the post I see where you're coming from. It's unfortunate when two great minds are so divided in this way. I am sure in other circumstances these two would be the best of friends.

Hopefully Theron will cease his obnoxious goading. BTW, I am an Ohio attorney interested in the legal issues surrounding recent events. D

hahaha, I am goading? You guys are supposed to be brothers... its okay to goad me with gratuitous attacks, but when I am proven RIGHT, suddenly I am goading? No, I was right, and I made my point that I have been proven right... and I guess to someone who is so angry at my posts, being proven right might be a tad bit irritating.
Sorry about being proven right, brothers
I would have thought you might have something to say about my being proven right, instead, I get talked about as if I were a child...
but I guess that might be a bit too much to expect...

A very apt observation from Bro. Theron's Blog, " ...remember that he may be ill and in need of assistance. This assistance may mean forcefully restraining him..."

yes, Br. Peterson made a good point. I think he was referring to Brad.

Art Peterson can keep his opinions of me to himself. He has no business ever speaking of me. I am sorry but I am really sick and tired of this. You win Theron, you can have the net.

Perhaps forever. I have some very serious real life issues to deal with. All of this gaslighting and constant attacks is making me physically ill. It is a real shame that on this, my true home on the net I have to be bombarded with this attacks. They have thier own form where no Grand Orient Masons are allowed to post, you think that would make them happy. One would think that even if they disagree that they would act more like gentlemen but I guess they have decided to through all decency out the window to eliminate to them what appears like a threat to the system. I am sorry this has come to this. Regards, Brad A Proud Grand Orient Free-Mason www.grandorientusa.org
