40. Do Not Sit In The East Unless Specifically Requested
Do you recall how some high school cliques would constantly sit in the same lunchroom? Similar things happen in Freemason lodges. The “Adorable Master” is located in the chamber’s far east corner. Unless they are summoned, there are no other members in this territory. Former Worshipful Masters are welcome to sit as well. It’s the same as joining the great children’s table, in principle.
39. You Must Have Faith In God
Even if you confess it, you’re unlikely to get a job in your local lodge if you’re an out-of-the-box atheist. Why? You must believe in a “Supreme Being” to become a Freemason. This is essentially God. God has arrived. Even if you are not religious, you must pay lip service in order to join.
