This really stuck out to me. For a number of reasons. It struck a nerve and I am very happy to see this being said. I had not really made the connection with the significant amount of times a man must give his consent to be raised as a master mason, but this topic has been eating at me since I first created my Facebook account about one month ago. I created it SOLELY as a means of networking and staying connected with my brothers and current events within masonry, and I am already ready to delete my account. I thought, surely if I restrict my contacts to Masonic members only, I will avoid the highly spoken about negative side of Facebook. But as I sit here today, with only brothers for Facebook friends, I am worn down from the negativity that Facebook has brought into my life.
