It turns out they weren't druid priests at all! Just a couple of Shriners looking for a good time!

I always thought whacks was wax. Those Shriners must've REALLY been looking for a good time. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (2ManyAndersons) http://www.survivorsucks.com/sreply/3383181 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 22:42:59 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Questions about the Shriners ]]> http://www.survivorsucks.com/reply/3383150/t/Questions-about-the-Shriners.html#reply-3383150 feeds@yuku.com (Mom HOLIO) http://www.survivorsucks.com/sreply/3383150 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 22:38:04 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Questions about the Shriners ]]> http://www.survivorsucks.com/reply/3381496/t/Questions-about-the-Shriners.html#reply-3381496 Bethlehem.

It was only in the last five years or so that I began to find out about "The Masons". And then I was afraid to ask my dad anything about them.

Aren't they supposed to be part of that whole Illuminati thing? ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Aunt Pappy) http://www.survivorsucks.com/sreply/3381234 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 17:01:12 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Questions about the Shriners ]]> http://www.survivorsucks.com/reply/3381098/t/Questions-about-the-Shriners.html#reply-3381098 Tres Gay wrote:

My mom and Aunt were "Bethel Queens" and "Daughters of the Nile".

Again...my family is proud of their Masonic background and the Shriners have always impressed me.

Potentate because they havew a middle eastern theme and that's what the world called the middle eastern rulers back then. I'm presuming Rabban is the same. That explains the funny hats too.

1) Why do they call their leader a Potentate?
2) Is there a lot of nudity in the "Nobles only" area? My guide walked me through this area but no one was there so I don't know if they run around with fezzes on their nads or anything.

4) What is a Rabban?
