No one's preventing you from posting about the topic. But I'm not going to allow someone to make false accusations about something I'm quite proud of.

The Little Mermaid ride is still happening. If it wasn't, Al Lutz would have spilled the beans already. But everything from Lutz thus far has been that the Mermaid ride is only growing in scope and budget, not the opposite.

Also, if the Mermaid ride wasn't happening, then the Imagineers wouldn't have been visiting Winnie The Pooh after park hours the past few weeks to inspect and photograph the waterfall and raindrop effects in the Floody Place scene. Those watery special effects in the Pooh ride are some of the best, and one of the few places in that attraction where things are visually impressive instead of underwhelming.

That WDI is picking and choosing some of the best effects, like the water effects in Winnie The Pooh, for Mermaid is a very good sign. It's also a sign that the ride is still happening, as Al Lutz has said repeatedly in recent updates.

Funny. Klansmen make the same arguments. And it only takes a little study to realize that at the heart of it all, are some very bad ideas. Some Klansmen are probably very nice people, on the face of it. I hope I don't know any, though.

With other secret societies, that are more benign and frankly, rather irrelevant to society anymore, and impotent in general, their members are either patently ignorant of some of their core tenets, or fiercely intending to put on a good face.

Again, the Mormons don't want anyone to bring up the hit squads during the Westward expansion. But it happened. It doesn't take but a trip to a good library and some dedicated time to verify any of these types of things.

Another post with no facts, just allegations and attempts to slur by association.

The Freemasons are not a secret society. We freely admit our membership and proudly display our symbols; our Lodges are well marked, we're in the phonebook, and many Lodges even belong to their city's Chamber of Commerce.

Again, start a thread in WE with some facts, and I'll happily refute them. You simply don't know what you are talking about.

A secret society is not defined by its willingness to "go public" but by the SECRETS it keeps private. Or attempts to keep private, despite the easily accessible material that evidences those secrets, in the public domain. Your enemy is not me - it's TIME. Too much time for the Masons has eroded their ability to keep these crazy writings under wraps. If I were a present day Mason, I'D be embarrassed by them as well. So I can't blame you for being defensive. I'm sure YOU don't pay any obesiance to Lucifer, and that's got to be a piece of history you just want to go away.

I'm not embarrased by the Masons; I'm proud of them. And there is no history that Masons pay obesiance to Lucifer; just accusations made by people like you, who don't have all the facts, and are unwilling to listen to any.

BlueOhanaTerror - the masons are a very good society, better than most. I come from a long line (my great grandfather was a Grandmaster) of masons, and the amount of great work I have seen is increadible. Just because work is done in secrecy and black is worn to lodge meetings does not a satanist make.

The masonic movement is a celebration of life!
