  • Episode 20 Prince Hall
    Prince Hall , The history Prince Hall, our founder, was one of our great Americans, a worthy Grand Master associated with our first Grand Lodge and its expansion. His name is carried by our masonic organizations in the United States, and by thousands of freemasons who regard themselves as descendants from the Grand Lodge of England, from which he received his authority more than two centuries ago. We in America celebrated in 1976 the two hundredth anniversary of our Declaration of Independence. This is also the two hundred and first (201st) anniversary of the founding of Prince Hall Masonry. It is a monument to Prince Hall’s life, career and leadership. It was a significant event in Freemasonry on March 6, 1775, when Prince Hall and fourteen other men were initiated into Freemasonry through Warrant No. 459, which is still in our possession. John Batt, who was of the 38th Foot Regiment of the British Army, having enlisted in 1759 and learning of the American cause, re-enlisted in its army. The enlistees were Prince Hall, Cyrus Johnston, Bueston Slinger, Prince Rees, John Canton, Peter Freeman, Benjamin Tiler, Duff Ruform, Thomas Santerson, Prince Rayden, Cato Speain, Boston Smith, Peter Best, Forten Horward, and Richard Titley. The writer has this record. A permit was issued for these freemasons to meet as African Lodge No. 1, and they became the first Black freemasons in the United States. Prince Hall enlisted and served as a soldier in the 2nd and 6th Regiments of Massachusetts. In this connection, George W. Williams, historian, wrote in 1884, "that he saw hard service we know by the record of the two regiments he served in, always distinguished for steadiness and valor.

That is not the Fellows way. Fellows maximize the academic experience, while still fully engaging in the life of the University. Over the years, Fellows have served as Student Regent; as Internal Vice President, External Vice President, and President of Student Government; as Presidents of the Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes; as presidents, Sing chairs, and other officers of fraternities and sororities; as presidents of the premed honor societies, of the BRH choir, of the Baylor Men’s Choir, and of the Mock Trial Team. Fellows have served as Welcome Week leaders and Community Leaders in dorms; worked on campus and off; dated (and married); gone on mission trips with Baylor and with their churches; worked with youth groups; led Steppin' Out; participated in varsity athletics, club sports, and intramurals; performed in choirs, bands, and orchestras; taken internships across the United States and abroad; presented research at national conferences . and we are leaving out a whole lot.

  • Knighthood Vs Occultism
    Our Knight Order and Occultism; Any Relationship? Occultism can be defined as secrete operations that translate to the tenets of the world secret societies and groups with hidden intentions ,dark practices and mysterious activities which non-members are not permitted to participate in. They may be registered clubs or organizations whose activities and inner functioning are concealed from non-members and the government. Secret Societies are well organized conspirators working in secret to achieve a hidden agenda in which members use secrecy to protect themselves and their movements. General public view secret societies as malevolent organizations working against the general will of mankind and God. Members may be required to conceal or deny their memberships and they are often sworn to hold the society‟s secrets by an obligatory oath and violating the oath is consequential such as in application of ruthless sanctions and punishments. The following are some of occult related objects and activities-numerology, fortune telling, sorcery, psychic healing, rituals, soul travelling, voodoo, santeria, mediums, hypnotism, palm reading to mention few amidst their countless and repulsive norms. The Oxford Dictionary defines Knight, “a man upon whom non-hereditary dignity of knighthood is conferred by sovereign because of personal merit or for services rendered to the country”. A Knighthood is an honour whereby one is made into a knight and one can then be called “Sir” e.g. Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa and Sir Isaac Newton etc. Surely, therefore, this definition is the reason for us to select Very Important People all over the World to be included in this prestigious Internationally Chartered Knighthood incorporated under the laws of the government and filed at the office of the Secretary of the First State of United States of America (State of Delaware) which is due for award individual because of their service for mankind.
