Hoodwinked

A new Entered Apprentice asked the lodge instructor, "What is the light of Masonry?"

The instructor replied, "What? Are you still hoodwinked?"

EA: "No sir, but I heard a Fellow Craft say that the Masonic light cannot be seen with the eyes."

Instructor: "Whoever says Masonic light cannot be seen with the eyes is asleep. Whoever says the light can be seen with the eyes is ignorant."

EA: "Evidently I am still hoodwinked!"

The instructor smiled: "There is hope for you yet."
