WORKMAN UNASHAMED

Over the years I have repeatedly been asked to define terms such as
Religion, Religious, Christian, and corrolate them to Masonry.

As a senior pastor of my church for over 36 years, as Master of my
Lodge and as Grand Chaplain of the Grand Lodge of California, I
have been the target of inquiries by those who really wanted to
know as well as those whose opinions had long since been cast in
bronze.

Despite the fact that much literature has been written on the
subject, from obscure articles through pamphlets to literary tomes
(I even wrote a position paper for the Grand Lodge of California),
no one single volume, regardless of size, seemed adequate in
addressing the controversial subject.

Most authors have limited scopes of knowledge or preconceived
opinions which preclude a full discussion of the subject.

Christopher "Kit" Haffner, the author of Workman Unashamed, printed
hy Lewis Masonic (England), has given us a book that is unique in a
plethora of ways.

He is a Master Mason, an Anglican with extensive knowledge of the
Roman Church, yet is conversant with the doctrines and practices of
Methodists, Baptists, Plymouth Brethren, and the Charismatics.

He has worshiped with them all and studied their points of view
with an open mind. So open, in fact, he has discovered just how
much of an organized religion's problem has to do with semantics,
terms, individual vocabularies and communication in general.

Through his research, seemingly a life-long project, he has
assembled a compendium of fact, knowledge, logic and general
information on a multitude of religious and Masonic subjects, from
Deism through Agnosticism to Satanism.

I first read the book when it was loaned to me by a friend. I
thought so much of the publication I purchased a copy for my
library. I never want to be caught without a copy to loan to an
inquisitive friend or brother.

The author doesn't ask you to agree with him. Neither do l! But his
mind is so pregnant with information, his soul so eager to
communicate, and his attitude so open and unagressive, he is
compelling.

At last, I have a single volume I may suggest for those who really
want to know as well as those who would like to be able to explain
their point of view to another.

I highly recommend the book to my "fellows of the Craft."
