THE ISSUE I HAVE WITH THIS IS THAT I THOUGHT THE PROCESS WAS TO DEVELOP ONENESS AND ALSO EDUCATE THE GENTLEMEN IN THE PROCESS IN THERE HISTORY. DUE TO THE MANNER IN WHICH I WAS ABLE TO RECEIVE MY INFORMATION AND HAVE IN DEPTH STUDY I AM AS VERSED AS MANY BROTHERS WHO HAVE HAD PHYSICAL PROCESS. THIS LEADS ME TO MY QUESTION...
WHAT MAKES SOMEONE A BROTHER...THE FACT THAT THEY KNOW THEIR HISTORY AND WORK HARD FOR THE ORGANIZATION OR THAT THEY PLEDGE HARD FOR A CERTAIN NUMBER OF WEEKS AND RECEIVED BRUISES AND SCARS?
PLEASE RESPOND REMEMBERING THAT THIS AN OPEN FORUM AND WE ARE STILL WHATEVER THE CASE ALPHA MEN.
