Character Counts

Character Counts - Revisions
www.PreciousHeart.net

We ready this first edition for review. The story substantially uplifts a Christian Freemason and seriously challenges the SBC anti-Mason documents along with David Barton, John Ankerberg, and James Holly—with character counting as the hammer driving the wedge of credibility between them. Hopefully with a foreword from a notable Freemason, the following edits will be in the next revision, most of which are simple style issues, none of which affect cogency. I will be grateful for any suggestions. One friend noted that I used "too" too many times, and she was right, most of which will be culled in the second edition. *E-mail me mgmaness@earthlink.net; I hope to incorporate these and any other good suggestions early in 2007. Thanks* for the help to date, and I welcome more. Have great day.** Sincerely, Michael Glenn Maness

Ironically, we used as many sources here to define “whipping boy” as Gordon used to define and refute Freemasonry—a whipping boy, indeed.[1]

	106	b-4	[Insert text where marked]	Insert section below where marked in text, from file 00_Section_01.htm on the disk, which says the following: Ironically, the Closer Look at Freemasonry has lost its name, has been reduced from a pdf file to a mere html article on Freemasonry on the new SBC Apologetics web site, though currently identical to former Closer Look. So we will continue to use Closer Look in our close look at the official SBC document, and how it has morphed, even in title and authorship notations. The Interfaith Witness Department became Interfaith Evangelism in 1996 when the Home Mission Board was renamed the North American Mission Board (NAMB). In late 2004, it evolved into Apologetics and Interfaith Evangelism, according to Jeannie Hope, with most of its work reflected on its own web site, www.4truth.net. In an e-mail dated 12-21-06, 10:21 AM, new Apologetics and Interfaith Manager Robert M. Bowman responded with a recognition that “many Baptists have been and still are Freemasons” and yet recalled that the 1993 SBC convention resolution elements were “not compatible” with Christianity, and the eight non-compatible items are reflected in the their document—as though that settled it—so my request to respond “would not be necessary or appropriate for us to post an article supporting or defending Freemasonry.” I sent an advance copy of this book to Paige Patterson and Frank Page (and David Barton) just before Christmas, 2006, and e-mailed chapters 3 and 4 to Bowman, inviting them to respond before February 28, 2006. Though Bill Gordon was the author of the Freemasonry articles and though the originals had no author listed—and the Closer Look title now removed—the articles remain the same today (January 2007)—only now the authors are “NAMB Staff”—that is, the staff claiming credit, somehow, still in secret. The same is true for the little Comparison Chart—Freemasonry and Christian, an elementary exercise in prejudice now accredited to “NAMB Staff”—an no one complains or is embarrassed. Gordon is listed as the author of several articles, even on Wicca. Is “NAMB Staff” meant to convey plural authorship? Did it take staff to reaffirm Bill Gordon’s two sources? The staff did not change anything. Worse, the staff have placed Freemasonry under the “New Religion” category at 4truth.net, without a hint of rationale, other than Gordon’s deceptive insinuations. Sounds more like a staff infection, even a defection from honor given the literature and lack of effort by the NAMB staff. Such could even be construed as staff expectoration or defecation on ten legions of legends, or just ignorant lackeyship. Let’s prove our case in a closer look.

The Real Frankenstein—by Mary Shelley (1797-1851) Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851) was the daughter of William Godwin (1756-1836), author of Political Justice, and grew up in a household where several significant philosophers crossed paths with her father.[3] She wrote the original Frankenstein, or, The Modern Prometheus in 1818, anonymously as a young woman of only 21, her husband Percy crafting the delicate preface of the story’s origin in Geneva in the winter of 1816 in the company and challenge of Lord Byron. Shelley finely tuned the work in 1831, crafting a longer and delicate preface of her own. A best seller and one of the first in the Gothic genre, her Frankenstein became a monumental piece of literature on human conflict still researched today, her monster becoming the most famous monster of all time.[4] In her 1831 preface, on the task of Dr. Victor Frankenstein, Shelley recounted from her vivid dreams how she came upon the story, how she began to see the doctor as the “pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together”; then with a delicate and precise sensitivity to human frality, Shelley said, I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life, and stir with an uneasy, half vital motion. Frightful must it be; for supremely frightful would be the effect of any human endeavor to mock the stupendous mechanism of the Creator of the world. His success would terrify the artist; he would rush away from his odious handywork, horror-stricken. He would hope that left to itself, the slight spark of life which he had communicated would fade; that this thing, which had received such imperfect animation, would subside into dead matter.[5] What classic and literary artistry—here even Dr. Frankenstein sees his mistake. The more famous and visual 20th century representation—and character—came in the 1931 classic movie adaptation and departure from Shelley, Frankenstein, which starred Boris Karloff as a slow, nearly mute, clunky hulk.[6] Who has not seen the movie? The now classic spoof, Mel Brook’s Young Frankenstein, starred Gene Wilder as the younger scientist ashamed of his grandfather’s work while lampooning nearly every element of the 1931 classic.[7] There have been other adaptations in movies and plays, some departing and some trying to follow Shelley, and a few more lampoons.[8] Compare Shelley’s Frankenstein and her literary skill with the anti-Mason work, and the Frankenstein monster is more human, less prejudice, more studious and delicately conscientious—even more moral at the start. Shelley’s monster read more books than SBC expert Bill Gordon used in his Closer Look; the real Frankenstein more well read and literate than the SBC expert! Shelley’s Frankenstein character is one of the great paradoxes in fiction literature, for he is more human and emotionally adaptive than his creator. Shelley’s Frankenstein finds himself in the woods coming to his physical senses slowly, as his sight, hearing, and hunger force him to adjust to the wildness of 19th country life. Finding a hovel behind a lonesome cottage, he begins to spy on the human occupants, and he learns from them, eventually falling in love with them and their winsome ways. He learns their language piece meal, and then longs to reveal himself to his “friends.” He is agile, big, strong, and nearly indestructible, only more ugly and lonely than the devil (for even the devil has his fellow demons). Shelley’s Frankenstein has a brain and can stand on his own two feet. When we come to his narrations in the book, he is more educated, articulate, and attractive than anything the anti-Masons have created. The real Frankenstein studied both books and people, was artful, self-aware, and ever-so-generous careful of human feeling; he wants with all of his heart to talk to people, to befriend. Shelley’s masterpiece, Frankenstein, was study in character counting most of all: the monster diligently and from the bottom of his heart studied the character of the persons inhabiting his new world, even turning from virtue to vice as he emulated their hatred, ever so delicately hoping to find an honest relationship on earth, turning to extortion of his creator in order that his creator would make another creation, even bride, another like himself to avert his lonely destiny. The monster sought love. In the book, the monster is never named, starts out as virtuous as an angel, and becomes monstrous right along with Victor Frankenstein as they both learn to hate and seek vengeance. As Shelley weaved her tale, the lonely character of the monster—that we now call Frankenstein—incurred hatred because of his outward appearance while no one seemed interested in his heart, not even his creator. Unlike the 1931 Karloff movie, Shelley’s monster grieved over the death of his creator, lived on, and departed into isolation, vowing never to be beheld again by human eyes. Without saying so, one of the great literary elements in Shelley’s masterpiece is that the real monsters were those engulfed in their own prejudices, afraid, and practically unable to seek out the truth. How true it is that great ignorance often breeds great hate, and few things are more illustrative of that ignorance-inspired hate than the anti-Mason Frankenstein concoctions—as least in the light. Toward the end, heeding Dr. Victor Frankenstein’s warnings about the monster’s “powers of eloquence and persuasion,” a grieving friend heaved “Hypocritical fiend!” toward the monster, degrading the monster’s grief over the death of his creator. At that, the monster recalled his days of virtue and longing for affection, which had become a “shadow” and which had turned “into bitter and loathing despair.”[9] The monster lamented and poured forth near poetic remorse of soul from his own departure from a virtuous life, his total rejection by humans, his isolations to date, and forlorn over his isolations to come. Therein, we saw more humanness and genuine self-awareness than anything in the last 100 years of anti-Mason literature and their Frankenstein concoctions. In the last short sentence of Shelley’s tale, the ever-so-human creation leapt out the window, never to be seen again. Many a conscientious reader leaves the story wondering just who the real monster was. We pity Frankenstein, the loneliest creature in literary history.
