I've got a friend of mine who is wonderful and kind. Also very lonely so she is examining all of her options so to speak. One of which is "speed dating." those not familiar with the concept let me explain. My friend gets a 1/2 hour where in two minute intervals she gets to meet as many eligible single men as possible.
Being a pragmatist I like this idea. In and out, bang bang no BS. Awesome. works for me. This would let her get though the BS and get down to the nitty gritty of what would make a successful relationship. Rock and roll!
Let's take myself as an example. My favorite band ever is The Pixies. I listen to them every day. Now, would I need you to be a Pixies fan to be the love of my life? Of course not. But you better damned be Pixies tolerant. If your not you would be on your backside faster than either of us could say backside. I like what I like for reasons. Number one, The Pixies rock and are totally awesome and Number Two because I hate change and I don't feel like doing it.
WTF? Does this have to do with Freemasonry? Well, the same thing. I am a Post-Modern Freemason. That means I like freedom and I really love the freedom to do what I do. You don't like it? I don't care. You'll be like that 2 minute date that hates The Pixies and loves sandalwood candles. Good luck to ya. I don't need to hear an explanation. I don't care, you're outta here.
In short I don't want to explain myself. If you don't agree with Post-Modern Freemasonry I don't care what your reasons are. I don't care what you think on the subject. You are just a past over two minute date, destined for a life of Altoids and someone who gives a crap. That wouldn't be me, not here. No coffee, no causal conversation, no splitting the tab at P.F.Changs.
I don't debate, I don't argue. I don't care about your "point of view" on this subject. I am sure someone does, I hope the conversation goes well.
That someone just isn't me, or any of us in the Post-Modern movement.
I am sure another speed dating class resumes next week. Good luck .
