Florida Freemasonry kicks out the pagans

[onyxtwilight]

The Grand Master of Florida Freemasonry has declared that Pagans (and agnostics and gnostics) can't be Masons and must resign.

The question has arisen if certain religious practices are compatible with Freemasonry, primarily Paganism, Wiccan and Odinism, and secondarily Agnosticism and Gnosticism.

BTW, the Mason in question started a blog about the whole incident given the outcome. Thought you might want to read:

Kind of a bold move for an order dying a slow death of attrition due to lack of interest, to pro-actively further reduce its ranks by kicking out a whole class of people, innit?

Dumbass.

And, possibly a very belated follow-up - that edict was struck down by the Florida GL.

Yeah, I saw it when it happened, but by then I was mostly posting on G+. :-)
