oh, ya

"Onward Christian Soldiers" is Job Daughters. It's a secret, prostestant girls organization for the daughters of Masons. I belonged for a couple of years and don't see what's so secret about it. Not only is there nothing to keep secret especially, it's boring. I can't tell you the connection between the song and the club because that would be a secret. I think the Bible says something about Christians should not belong to secret oranizations, but I'm not sure. They exclude Catholics, and of course, all non-Christian peoples. What's the secret? Beats me. I could never find one. There's a group for boys, too, Demolay, I think. Are they racists? I would think so since the kids have to be related to Mason's and I'm almost positive the Mason's don't, or didn't, allow non-whites. Oh, my Dad was a Mason. Very proud of his membership, but didn't ever attend or participate in my lifetime. So again, I didn't know or notice. Subtilities sometimes have to be explained and pointed out to people. Like participles. Not that there's any connection between 'Onward Christian Soldiers' and Job's Daughters. Necessarily.

Interesting, most of the DeMolay's I know don't have fathers who are Masons. And as far as Job's Daughters, I've met some who are Jewish. And the African-American gentlemen I've met who are Masons, would probably disagree with the racist statement. Just my thoughts.
