bytor2112: no that was the comment of another, and i said the same thing. It seemed like he was trying to start the "the church is hiding information" argument. I simply brought up that the church supplies reliable information: the endowment is available online, or you can read about it through the church in the Library of Congress.
I considered Elder Ballard's counsel to continue the conversation and judged by the spirit, and after about 5 more responses decided to end the conversation in a public eye. I have told him if he has questions he can contact me, but my defense has gotten to the point that he started to make sporadic accusations instead of focusing on one central idea (which started as the endowment).
But, i do find this very interesting, in a faith promoting way. Is there an official consensus of what Masonry is? Do they believe the temple rites to be that of Solomon's temple?
