“The genius of Freemasonry is not our Masonic buildings and temples or the trappings of our organizations. It is not our great charities or community activities. It is not our beautiful rituals or their teachings! It is the 'practice of Freemasonry' by the Freemasons. Yet we cannot practice that which we do not know or understand. Thus Masonic education is the foundation for our Fraternity. Brother Carl H. Claudy in The Master's Book says, '.. one thing and only one thing a Masonic Lodge can give its members which they can get nowhere else in the world. That one thing is Masonry.” KnowsWorldGivingBookBeautifulCommunityPracticeOne ThingTeachingBuildingBrotherMastersGeniusActivityMembersOrganizationFoundationCharityTemplesRitualFraternityMasonicLodgesMasonryFreemasonry Author:Carl H.

“One thing I want to clarify - that every service member, veteran, wants us to remember - is that the vast majority of people returning from service come back completely healthy. But when we do come across someone who is struggling. We have to develop a culture of open arms and acceptance so that they feel comfortable saying, "I'm a veteran. And by the way, I need little help." This is something we need to do in this country around mental health as a whole - destigmatizing mental health.” PeopleWayWantNeedsFeelsLittlesCountryWholeHelpingRememberCultureStruggleOne ThingAcceptanceArmsHealthyMembersComfortableMajorityMental HealthVeteranWant UOpen ArmsLittle Help Author:Michelle Obama
“One thing that's been a great, uplifting experience through all this is, since the first "Pirates" [movie], the people who've gone to see the films, the audience members.

“Many atheistic books and blogs seethe with anger. Remarkably, the authors do not limit their anger to Christians. They seem most livid with God. I don't believe in leprechauns, but I haven't dedicated my life to battling them. I suppose if I believed that people's faith in leprechauns poisoned civilization, I might get angry with members of leprechaun churches. But there's one thing I'm quite sure I wouldn't do: I would not get angry with leprechauns. Why not? Because I can't get angry with someone I know doesn't exist.” PeopleIfsKnowsBelieveI CanBookSeemsMightChristianI BelieveChurchOne ThingHavensCivilizationLimitsMembersAngryDon't BelieveWhy NotDedicatedBlogsBecause I CanAtheisticLeprechaun Book:If God Is Good: Faith in the Midst of Suffering and Evil Source: If God Is Good: Faith in the Midst of Suffering and Evil

“Ironically, members on both sides of the debate do agree about one thing: big bang cosmology puts their position in jeopardy. The big bang poses a problem for young-earth creationists because it makes the universe billions of years old rather than thousands. Such an assertion undercuts their system at its foundation. Big bang cosmology also presents a problem for atheistic scientists because it points directly to the existence of a transcendent Creator - a fact they dare not concede.” YearsFactsProblemBigsEarthYoungUniverseSidesExistenceOne ThingPositionMembersScientistAgreeFoundationDareCreatorBillionsDebateBoth SidesBangsAssertionTranscendentCosmologyAtheisticJeopardy Author:Hugh Ross

Martin Luther King was the old man in the bunch, and he was 35, so young people need to know that they've always been an important part of our society, have always been at the forefront of pushing for a more just America, and we can't be successful without the impatience, the vigor that young people bring to the fight for social justice.” PeopleKnowsMenNeedsYearsImportantTodayAmericaYoungFightingSocialJusticeSuccessfulOne ThingKingsMembersSocial JusticeCongressBunchBeing SuccessfulOur SocietyPushingMarchOld ManLutherImpatienceVigorMontgomeryGeorge Wallace Author:Keith Ellison
