If I tell you, I'll have to kill you. But I will say this, from what I have heard it is very similar to the intake process for the masons right down to the lines, numbers, crossing jackets, etc.

Thanks ladygreek. If that is the case, then I am all too familiar. I mean that in a good way.

The two are nothing alike, first Masons don't do an intake process, it is not pledging either, we have no crossing jackets (you haven't crossed anything), line numbers, or line names. Not fussing at you Ladygreek just clearing things up. If you are a Mason (Prince Hall only, the others don't count, yes I meant to offend, get right or get gone) and experienced these things then you were brought in WRONG. Masonry does not concern itself with such matters those are a Greek thing and to truly experience it one should become Greek. Having experienced both there are gentle similarities but overall they are different creatures all together.

Back to the subject, Square everything you need to proceed into a BGLO is in your lodge but if you think you can figure it out before you get in you are wasting your time before you became a Mason you were in the dark the same thing exist for Greekdom. Safe travels to you.

So I guess you didn't pick up on the fact that she was being sarcastic.
