Earlier HENRYM@SACTO.MP.USBR.GOV  said this to ALL  about RE: SBC findings:


H>Brethren,

H> Now, regardless of what we may personally think of Dr. Holly,
H>haven't we been admonished not to publically criticise the SBC?
H>However, I will add the point that when a repressive regiem takes
H>control of a country, don't they attempt to take control of the press,
H>and airwaves, and abolish Freemasonry?

Yes, we have been.  I will make no bones about the fact that I believe
such admonishings were a mistake from the begining though.  I think
idealistically they looked good in theory, but failed miserably in
practice since they assumed that simply to ignore an attacker means
he/she will simply go away.  Masonrys attackers have never simply
gone away when ignored.  They actually become more secure in the
knowledge that they have finally found a target group to attack that, no
matter how nonsensical their arguments are,  will never have the guts
to fight back.  But that's just my opinion.
