Yeah, 3° English Mason here.
One of the best things I've ever done was joining the Freemasons. Truly a life changing experience. The members of your lodge will be friends for life.

What do you even do at the meetings?

>>18948862
Mostly just boring club administration proceedings. Votes on fee changes, news updates from Provincial and Grand Lodge, reports from the Lodge charity steward, almoner, treasurer, et al. If there are any eligible candidates, we'll also perform degrees too. We then end with a large meal, usually 3 or 4 courses for £20–£30 including wine (depending on the venue).

No offence mate but that sounds like a pointless moneysink club. Like mensa and shit.

>>18948891
So is the ritualistic aspect for initiations only?
You can evade, but I have close family in the lodge, some very high ranked, i'm just wondering how things go in another countries.
