Re: How do you become a Free Mason?
2 B 1, ASK 1...

Have you never seen that bumper sticker?

Anyway, I once worked in an embroidery shop. One day, a dude came in and ordered some jackets with a compass and square design for his Masonic bowling league. I asked him some basic questions, just chit-chatting and so forth. When he came back to pick up the jackets a few days later, he handed me an application and told me if I was interested, to simply fill it out and drop it off at a local lodge. It asked for basic information and three references, and also "why do you want to pursue Freemasonry?"

I filled it out, but never did drop it off.

If you are interested, look in your local newspaper (or online) for "open lodge night" at your local Masonic lodge. I'm sure if you go to one, you can get an application.

Well, you find a branch close to the area where you live.

There's no secret stuff. All they do is to try to help people who need helping.

Just like Christians.

So if you become one of them, be prepared to help people who are in need of some help.

Go to Home Depot and ask where the mortar and brick aisle is located and buy some material.

Then stand outside with a sign that says you will lay some brick for free.

political correctness is a doctrine.... fostered by a delusional, illogical minority...... and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media; which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Re: How do you become a Free Mason?
The Secret stuff masons do has to do with the Stone.

They think they are its keepers.


Freemasonry is a Veil over the Laboratory.

They are actually Alchemists who hide the Philosopher Stone from the "Profane"


But Jesus wants everyone to have the stone.


They are going against the will of the Creator of All.

I've long known a guy who has been a freemason for over 30 years. I once mentioned all this goobly gobbledy to him and he almost died right there he laughed so hard.

He said they just help people out with money and stuff and that the only requirements to join are that you be a christian (or maybe just believe in God) and that you be of good moral character.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6685139


You must not read English... I filled it out, but never dropped it off

Anyway, I did some research and even spoke to some old Masons. The gist is this: the degrees teach moral lessons using symbolism and allegory. There are only 3 degrees - entered apprentice, fellow craft, and master mason. Any above those, like the 33 in the Scottish Rite system, are honorary titles.

In the US, masonic titles differ slightly between Northern and Southern lodges. Also, black people mostly join Prince Hall lodges, a different Masonic organization. There is still de facto segregation among American masonic lodges, especially in the South. The English lodges use a system called the York Rite, with different names for different degrees.

Basically, your local masons get together as a kind of social club. They do charity events, etc. Once they are master masons, they may join masonic organizations like the Shriners or the Tall Cedars of Lebanon. Eastern Star for the wives, Order of DeMolay for the sons, etc.

Are masons hiding something? Who knows, probably. They are people just like the rest of us. I'm sure some of them do many good things, and I'm sure some of them do bad things. And every variation thereof.

It is pretty much Masonic belief to not publicly defend against criticism of Masonry.

I know in some countries, like Liberia, it was pretty much necessary to be a Prince Hall mason to go anywhere in politics. Some lodges, like the Italian P2 lodge certainly had members that held undue influence over government; that's why such lodges are "disbanded."

The thing that concerns me most, thought, is that I know for FACT, things are being done in this country (the US) in the name of "masonry" that are simply deplorable and would probably cause revolt, if they were known. If I were a mason and I knew people were doing these types of things, I would certainly use any influence I had to stop these deeds and protect my reputation. After all, would any normal person want someone doing evil things in their name?

It's a pyramid scheme based on blackmail. Don't believe me? Read an application form and the 1st degree initiation rites.

Re: How do you become a Free Mason?
Here Opie, I'll let you choose the answer you want...

1.) They are a group of people that have a secret society and they don't want just anyone to be a part of it. They have good men that become members and since they are GOOD men, they help out people that need it. As a side benefit, they know that they can conduct business among themselves and probably won't get burned in any shady deals. You have to have another GOOD man or two vouch for you, and believe in a higher power, to even be an elect.

OR,

2.)They are a group of Satanic pedophiles that worship at a bloody alter in dark deserted buildings and their only desire is to make your life a living hell.

Think what you want...
