    So I went into Barnes and Noble

    I was looking around for a specific book. Called the "Book of Enoch." Well, anyway, I found it after looking for a bit. Brought it home and started looking through it. To my surprise I found a sticky inside of the back cover. On it it said,

    "Those of you who wish to seek enlightenment-
    Contact
    Brotherhood of the White Temple
    2830 Oak Way, Dept A
    Sedalia, CO 80135"

    I wanted to check what this was about so I did some searching and came up with this.



    "The Brotherhood of the White Temple

    From: http://www.bwtemple.org/Introductions.htm

    The Brotherhood of the White Temple is an organization devoted to the advancement of Metaphysical and Occult knowledge and the furtherance of the Brotherhood of Man and the establishing of contact with the God-Soul or Universal Consciousness. It is governed by a Supreme Voice and Council and by an Executive Board of Directors under a Colorado Charter. The Council consisting of six individuals who have proven their dedication to the purpose of the Brotherhood. All lessons are prepared under the direction of the Supreme Voice and Council and approved by the Great White Lodge before being made available.
    The Supreme Voice and Council test every law, principle, experiment and exercise before they are given to the student.

    The Brotherhood is a visible agent for the Invisible Great White Lodge, whose authority they acknowledge in all things.

    The earnest, sincere student who desires to approach the Great Adepts is given the opportunity to prepare himself for contact with the Great Adepts.

    The Great Adepts of the White Lodge, working from higher spiritual planes, guide and aid the student who has made himself ready for such aid. Through this guidance they are directed along the path of life, in such manner, that they are able to live in harmony with Divine Law.

    The Brotherhood extends an invitation to all worthy, sincere students to affiliate in the Great Work. It is your privilege to be a Light-Bearer if you will."

          In accordance with the Principle that TRUTH cannot be sold, I will voluntarily contribute a $20.00 Entrance Fee, plus $20.00 for the first month and each month thereafter for as long as I continue the Brotherhood Work ($30.00 for joint membership). Ancient Wisdom Teachings membership is required and included in College enrollment.

                Listen, I have a membership with them and it's not as crazy as it sounds. They're a very accepting group and offer answers that actually make sense to some of the questions that plauge life. I've based some of my stories around these answers, but I've put so much symbolism on them that I'm not in danger of being expelled from the order.

                It's worth joining if you want answers.

                  Sounds like any religion to me.

                  No big deal.

                    It's more than a religion; it was a life changing expierience when I joined the VA branch and have since transferred my membership to NY. They look out for your interests like the Mormons, but they're much more understanding.
