Elvis/Freemasons

why did Elvis, who was a very christian person and most of all loved Gospel music, tell the world that TCB meant such a stupid thing as Taking Care of Business, when we all know it meant Templars of Christian Brotherhood? You can read all about TCB in the book Templars of the Christian discuss any comments about this freemasonic organization. 83.36.179.184

Elvis Presley did not try to tell "the world" that "TCB" meant anything other than the meaning it had for him personally. It was just a favored Motto he had for himself that stood for: "Taking Care of Business" The lightning bolt that accompanies the three letters of "TCB" represents: "In a flash". He liked it and that is all it meant. Nothing more.

Elvis's TCB

I noticed that the Elvis reference was removed. I do think that the topic is worth a Wikipedia entry, but I don't have the knowledge to write it. I mentioned it here in the hopes that someone will be spurred to write it. Although the acronym (and the concept) of "TCB" has different meanings, it's commonly interpreted to mean Elvis's entourage and their approach to things.
