Lodge Of Education And Freemasons

Thrive: According to the Masonic Lodge of Education, “Freemasons are believers in high ideals, brotherhood between all men, and are builders of a better future for all mankind” (“Freemasons and Freemasonry”). Freemasons thrive through voluntary and charitable work in efforts to giving back to their community. Local lodges tend to arrange charity events to endow scholarship aid for the youth as well as to support other local charitable causes. Freemasons believe education is the highest importance in life, so they provide college scholarships to young men and women; both members of the lodge and non-members (“Freemasons and Freemasonry”).

    The sixties were a golden age for cults and religious fringe groups, and Colorado, particularly Boulder, was infamous for being one of the country’s most futile initiation and recruit centers, much like it is today. As of today, conservative estimates show that there are over 2 million adult Americans involved in cults. In fact, it is so rampant to the point that it has become impossible to walk five steps without having someone approach to ask whether a passerby would be interested in going for a Buddhist meeting.

    Mason’s first father figure was very permissive. A permissive parent is one who is low in control but high in warmth (Feldman, 181).

After Mason Sr. returned the children home from bowling, Olivia takes note of the fact that the children had not completed any schoolwork or had a proper meal.
