Lee,
For my part no apology is necessary. Good honest, humour is, after all, essential in this world of ours.

Thanks for the explanation MrMason - I didn't think the group featured on the program had a great deal of credibility. I guess as with all of masonry there are many imitations.
I don't really see the point in the current trend in asking for apologies for something done a long time ago - whether it is the UK apologising to Germany for events of WW2, or european nations being asked to apologise for the slave trade, etc, etc. There seems to have been an awful lot of it lately. I think that we would all be better served by recognising what was done wrong and resolving to never let it happen again - looking forward and not back.

Bod... extremely well said, but I think it needs to be added that the possibility of everyone simply accepting what's done is done and then learning from it and moving on would, in my opinion, take a leap of faith from all concerned. In this day and age it just ain't gonna happen. Such a terrible shame really, but this is where we're at at the moment.

What I was very surprised with was this group that claims direct descent from the KT's. Does this make them more authentic than any masonic KT's?
