Masonic Etiquette In the New Millennium

In a few words, Masonic Etiquette is a code of recommended rules andsuggestions, however, we have to understand that these rules andsuggestions are not laws, such as the Grand Lodges regulations, orEdicts of the Grand Master. It is good to apply Masonic Etiquette inthe Masonic life, maybe much more in the profane one, in order tohonor the Order, because the Mason, especially outside the Lodge, isthe mirror of the Masonic Fraternity. ___________________________________ "Freemasonry is a mirror of the society itself, because itsmembers obviously are part of society, so it cannot escape theinfluence of secular life other than through education. Allmanifestations of disrespect, of over-turning the values,manifestations that unfortunately tend to encompass all aspects of our culture today, can be tackled only through a process of return to the es-tablished society values through education. Masonic Brotherhoodis the oldest of fraternities that exist in the world at this time.One of the features that differentiated it is tradition, submittedboth in writing and orally. Masonic Etiquette is one of the mostim-portant aspects of tradition."
