When Masons begin to concern themselves with how well they themselves are mastering the lessons of the Craft and stop judging Masons of other Obediences, the decline in membership will end. Then, and only then, will Freemasonry prosper.
The sectarian bickering which has become the mainstay of Modern Freemasonry is its own demise. There is an old saying which all who know anything of American history should be familiar, which states "Together we stand, divided we fall." If we cannot learn to ignore minor differences of protocol, nobody has reason to call us anything but old fools.
We are in the 21st Century, folks. When will we begin to wake up and smell the coffee? I'm just saying!
