Hi Plumcrazy,
What's your rules of grammar to extricate metaphors from statements of fact or at worst, cryptic comment?
# Russell," Do our Masonic friends understand...the Temple and being Knights Templar?" (Where was Knights Templar introduced?)
# "We (not JWs) are also Masons"
# "I am a free and accepterd Mason...our Masonic brethren like to tell us that they're free and accepted Masons"{which here is metaphor and which is literal?)
# "But not just after the style of our Masonic brethren"
# "I am not going to say a word against Free Masons"{to do so would've resulted in his assassination)
# "Some of my dear friends are Masons"
# "How do you{Russell} know about our highest {secret} logic"
# Note capital 'M' in the word mason
Q. Who was Russell talking about, "One who had been a Mason for a long time recently bought a thousand books...about the Great Pyramid" if it wasn't he himself?
