Well I for one say that if you were to look at some of the other societies out there then you will have to admit that they do charge fees in order to get in. Like freemasonry, they charge a $75.00 application fee and that doesn't guarantee that you will get into their fraternity. But what do you get in return? Well they supposedly have connections everywhere and you can be admitted eveywhere you go, but you must first have a note from the previous lodge that you attended, and you also have to reregister with them and still pay that same $75.00 fee. Oh and one other thing there is the fazct that you will have to have a belief in some sort of god and be of sound mind and body in order to get in. This means no mental or physical disabilities. No SSI recipients, no wheelchair bound people, no cleft lips or elephant man looking people. Hey I didn't make the rules. So what is wrong with them charging what is it... $139.50 for their invitation? I know that they have rip off reports, but so do the masons. They even have been indicted many times by the federal courts and even had a case pending against them in the U.S. Supreme Court. I watched CNN and saw that one! So what would you rather go with? Uncertainty or indictment? Hell of a choice to make huh? :5: :5:
