‘Slate suggests a solution to men’s solitude’

    
Slate

I don’t mind admitting Slate would not be the first place I’d look for a story about Freemasonry but, while I was enjoying a research lodge meeting this morning, it published a story by Allegra Rosenberg—her first in Slate—on how the Craft might be an answer for a man needing a social circle. And she began her research inside our very own Masonic Hall!

“What If the Solution to Men’s Loneliness Is…Freemasonry?” the headline asks. A few pardonable factual errors aside, she writes of several Masons in Boston, Washington State, the U.K., and elsewhere to explain how “Freemasonry fits right in as a fount of nearly infinite history, ritual, symbolism, and mystery, which is the icing on the cake of close-knit and reliable community.”

I can’t argue with that. Read all about it here.

Keep in mind Grand Lodge will host Masonic Con New York “Self and Society” in January which will address this very subject. Click here.
