When a Freemason remains silent as misconceptions about the Craft swirl around him, has he broken his most sacred vow?
This provocative examination reveals why defending Freemasonry against slander isn't just encouraged—it's a non-negotiable duty binding every Mason. Delving into centuries-old traditions, the author uncovers how this responsibility extends beyond simple loyalty to become the living embodiment of Masonic principles.
From the multidimensional nature of fraternal protection to practical strategies for confronting misinformation in the digital age, this work transforms our understanding of what it truly means to wear the square and compass.
Discover why protecting the "good name" of your brethren and the fraternity itself represents not merely an obligation but a privilege—one that connects each Mason to an unbroken chain of brothers who have preserved the Craft's reputation through generations of challenge and change.
