Is Oral Roberts a mason?

I have been trying to find out this answer if he was not a mason he was a member of the Mystery School. Here is a quick example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Praying_Hands_at_the_main_entrance_to_the_campus_of_Oral_Roberts_University.jpg The Masons (Mystery Schools) the triangel is a sign for mind, desire/emotin, and action. This has a deeper meaning in the 3rd dergee you become a Master Mason this is when you become a true Mason. In this ritual you replay the death of Hiram Abiff he was killed by 3 people that are signs for nd, desire/emotin, and action. IN the 1st dergee you learn how to handle and controll mind/thought, the 2nd desire/emotin and last action. This is the basic of the triangle that you see. That is a clear sign that he was.

When did Queen Elizabeth I of England die?

Elizabeth I of England, died March 24, 1603, at Richmond Palace. Prior to her death, she had been severely depressed for a couple of months. After Robert Essex, had been executed, Elizabeth began to lose most of her close, male friends, and felt very lonely and lost motivation and desire to continue to rule, and live as she had, as Queen. On or around March 20, she stated to her staff that she had a chill, and did not feel well. She retired to her apartments, though refused to be examined by her doctors. She remained in her apartment, either standing in one place, or reclined in a chair, and refused to take to her bed. She eventually laid down on some cushions, spread out on the floor. She laid on the floor, still, and silent, for nearly 4 days. Unable to argue or even speak, her staff moved her to the bed where she remained, in after-settled and unmovable melancholy. She passed away in her sleep, the next morning.
