You are confusing Mason's with Freemason's. The Mason's have protestant overtones, however the Freemason's accept any religion, the only stipulation is a belief in a supreme being or god.

I'm not an expert on these matters. I'm sure there are some out there who are.....

But we will never find out!

Well I'm not an expert or a mason but aren't freemasons and masons one and the same. I don't think the masons exclude catholics rather it is the catholic church that believes masonry has a religious orientation that conflicts with catholicism?

In the 1820's the Pope issued a Papal Bull against Freemasonry if that helps.

Meanwhile, are people still calling them Rangers? That should have an auto correct by now, Div.

Handy thing this internet -

The denomination with the longest history of objection to Freemasonry is the Roman Catholic Church. The objections raised by the Roman Catholic Church are based on the allegation that Masonry teaches a naturalistic deistic religion which is in conflict with Church doctrine. In 1983, the Church issued a new Code of Canon Law which caused both Catholics and Freemasons to believe that the ban on Catholics becoming Freemasons may have been lifted, especially after the perceived liberalisation of Vatican II. However, the matter was clarified when Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (later Pope Benedict XVI), as the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, issued a Declaration on Masonic Associations, which states: "... the Churchs negative judgment in regard to Masonic association remains unchanged since their principles have always been considered irreconcilable with the doctrine of the Church and therefore membership in them remains forbidden. The faithful who enroll in Masonic associations are in a state of grave sin and may not receive Holy Communion." Thus, from a Catholic perspective, there is still a ban on Catholics joining Masonic Lodges. For its part, Freemasonry has never objected to Catholics joining. In contrast to Catholic allegations of rationalism and naturalism, Protestant objections to freemasonry are more likely to be based on allegations of mysticism, occultism, and even Satanism

Rangers traditionally have had many directors who were pretty high up in Masonic circles. SFA secretary Sir George Graham also had an elevated position in the masons and so was percieved to be pro-Rangers during his time in charge of the SFA up until the late 1950s.

Di Stefano is exactly what this situation needs.

True dat.

Di Stefano has an inexplicable hold on the gullible. When we went into Admin for the second time, we still had spackers on the OS that thought he'd come in and save us. SIX YEARS after his involvement in our first clusterfuck, hundred of posts about him being a complete fraud, and a fucking TV Documentary pretty much proving him to be a crock of shit.

I can't even begin to imagine the potential hilarity on SevcoMedia.

Mountain Rescue will have to get a shot of a fucking Chinook to get those fat c***s off that mountain.

I climbed it on Friday and funnily enough there was a bad smell. I just thought it was the usual dead sheep but now I am begining to wonder.

I wonder if they were the b*****ds that nicked ma tea-cakes
