    Prayer of Release for descendants of those involved in Masonry

    I you or someone you love is a descendant of a Mason, I recommend that
    you pray through the following prayer from your heart. It is best to
    pray this aloud with a Christian witness.

    father God, creator of heaven, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ
    Your son. I come as a sinner seeking forgiveness and cleansing from all
    sins committed against You, and others made in Your image. I honor my
    earthly father and mother and all of my ancestors, but I utterly turn
    away from and renounce all their sins. I forgive my ancestors for the
    effects of their sins on me and my children. I renounce all of my own
    sins which have Masonry at their roots. I renounce and rebuke Satan and
    all his works, and every spirited power or force of his affecting me or
    my family.

    I renounce all involvement in Free masonry or any other lodge or craft
    by my ancestors. I renounce witchcraft, the principal sprit behind
    Freemasonry, and I renounce Baphornet, the Sprit of Antichrist and the
    curse of the Luciferian doctrine. I renounce the idolatry, blasphemy,
    secrecy and deception of Masonry at every level. I specially renounce
    the insecurity the idolatry, blasphemy, secrecy and deception of Masonry
    at every level. I specifically renounce the insecurity, the love of
    position and power, the love of money, advance or greed and the pride
    which would have led my ancestors into Masonry. I renounce all the
    fears which held hem into Masonry, especially the fears the death, fears
    of men, and fears of trusting, Jesusâ(TM) Name. I renounce every position
    held in the lodge by any of my ancestors, including Tyler, Master,
    Worshipful master or any other. I renounce the entrapping of others
    into Masonry, and observing the helpless of others during the rituals.
    I renounce the denial of Jesus Christ and His redeeming work
    accomplished on the Cross of Calvary.

    1st Degree
    I renounce the oaths taken and the curses involved in the First or
    Entered Apprentice degree, especially their effects on the throat and
    tongue. I renounce the hoodwink, the blindfold, and its effects on
    emotions and eyes, including all confusion, fear of the dark, fear of
    the light, and fear of sudden noises. I renounce the secret work Boaz,
    and all it means. I renounce the mixing and mingling of truth and
    error. the blasphemy of this degree of Masonry. I renounce the noose
    around the neck, the fear choking and also every spirit causing asthma,
    hayfever, emphysema or anything other breathing difficulty. I renounce
    the compass pointed against the breast, the fear of death by stabbing
    pain, and the fear of heart attack from this degree. In Jesusâ(TM) name I
    now pray for healing of ....(throat, vocal cords, nasal passages,
    sinus, bronchial tubes etc.), for healing of the speech area and the
    release of the Word of God to me and through me and my family.

    2nd Degree
    I renounce the oaths taken and the curses involved in the second or
    fellow degree of Freemasonry, especially the curses on the heart and
    chest. I renounce the secret words JACHIN and SHIBBOLETH and all that
    these mean. I cut off emotional hardness, apathy, indifference,
    unbelief, and deep anger from me and my family. In Jesus name I pray for
    the healing of the chest and lung area and also for the healing of my
    emotions, and ask to be made sensitive to the Holy Spirit of God.

    3rd Degree
    I renounce the oaths taken and the curses involved in the third of
    Master Mason Degree, especially the secret words MAHA BONE, MEACHBINNA
    and TUBAL CAIN, and all that it means. I renounce the spirit of the
    death from the blows to the head enacted as ritual murder, the fear of
    death, false martyrdom, fear of violent gang attack, assault, or rape,
    and the helpless of this degree. I renounce the falling into the coffin
    or stretcher involved in the ritua

    Even though this part of the post is not meant to be relevant, since the point of the joke is that they aren't saying anything, here's a filter-pleaser. Maybe if I write out a little bit more JESUS how much more do you need I am cutting out punctuation but I really fucking want to post a few exclamation marks Oh for fucks sake How much more do I have to type before this fucking post is long enough I dont even think its funny anymore myself Thankyou slashdot you have ruined my own joke for me you bastards CHRIST almighty what is their definition of a junk character I think Ive just written 40000 junk characters to get my original characters in the post Does anyone use Slashcode for ascii art collections?

    Unacceptable Swear-words

    Currently the following words are starred out whenever they appear on a DNA site. (There are very rare circumstances in which some of these words may be used if editorially justified; if the word appears in an extract of a quoted poem, for example).

    Please note that all derivatives of the following words are also currently included on the banned word list:

    * bxxxxxk - testicle
    * cxxt - vagina
    * fxxk - have sex
    * jxxm - ejaculated semen (also spelt as jxsm or jxzm)
    * txxt - another vagina, not twit
    * wxxk - masturbate, not work

    Words with Dual Meanings

    There are a number of words which have both acceptable and unacceptable meanings.

    * bxxxxxd - illegitimate person, bar steward (forbidden in the context of an insult, allowed as a term for an illegitimate person).
    * pxxs - urinate (Banned in the context of urination and insult, but allowed as a slang term for being angry or drunk)
    * pxxxk - a penis, a pricking feeling (not to be used as a substitute for penis, allowable in the context of pins and suchlike).

    Minority Groups

    Some words are banned not because they are 'profane' or swearing, but because they may offend members of any minority, religious or ethnic group. The list below is not definitive; any posting or article using a slang word that may be seen to be offensive to any group of people will be failed:

    * cxxn - black person, possibly from raccoon. But you are allowed to use 'coon as a slang term for raccoons.
    * nxxxxr - another black person, 'catch a nxxxxr by the toe'
    * sxxxxxc - a term that used to be used to describe a person with cerebral palsy.
    * yxd - short for 'yiddish'

    Thats better
