Famous or anti-famous?

March 21, 2009 by Masonic Traveler

I want to gush a little.

I got my first piece of Anti-Masonic fan mail today, and what made it all the better, it came in a plain white envelope, wrapped in a plain piece of white notebook paper, with only a three initials, and a P.O. Box from Northern California.

The intiails were J.S.W.

Thanks J.S.W., I appreciate the anonymous envelope addressed to Freemason Information with the notebook paper wrapped gift.  In a weird way, its a gift that I’ve wanted fro some time but never knew how to find, short of ordering it from the manufacturer.  although, I have to admit, I was hoping for another gift by the same author that I wrote about in 2006 on Why Freemasonry is Satanic, but I don’t think it’s in print anymore.

What was the gift you may ask?

It was my very own Jack Chick comic, The Long Trip

You can read “The Long Trip” on line.

Seriously, if your going to send me something like this, make it less creepy and send a note with it.  Say hello, tell me I’m loved, tell me you think I’m wrong, tell me anything, just say something.  Because the only way to find the sites address is to dig into the site registration, and J.S.W., that starts to stink of stalking…

On a separate note, I also found that a few of the bits originally published on the Masonic Traveler blog and on Freemason Information on several anti Masonic sites as bits of their arguments for what ever point it is they are trying to make.  And, in the case of one of the bigger anti masonic sites (it ends with Watch and starts with Freemasonry) whole original articles have been copied.  At least he gave me name credit but the link is, ahem, out of date.

So, I’d like to  accept my badge of Anti-Masonic honor and step up to the plate of other brothers who have been bestowed this award.

But I have to say, sending the Chick comic has taken it to a whole new level.

About Masonic Traveler

A devoted student of the Western Mystery Traditions, Greg is a firm believer in the Masonic connections to the Hermetic traditions of antiquity, its evolution through the ages and into its present configuration as the antecedent to all contemporary esoteric and occult traditions. He is a self-called searcher for that which was lost, a Hermetic Hermit and a believer in “that which is above is so too below.” Read more about Greg Stewart.

    I know, but I’d LOVE to just find a printed version of just that one. I think they sell it/give it away in the bundle packs.
