As a past master, I can only agree that overcoming that stagnant inertia is one of the most difficult things a WM will face if he recognizes the need for change. And we do need to, well, not change, but revert to what we’re supposed to be doing. I constantly ask brothers, if George Washington walked into your lodge and sat during the meeting, at the end of the evening would he come away impressed, or depressed?
In most lodges, I think we’d all agree it’s not the first option.
