Oh that's because they tell them straight up they will murder you and your family if you reveal secrets.

How many times have they murdered you for going around and revealing this secret?

Shriners ARE Masons, but not all Masons are Shriners. You have to be a Mason to be eligible to be in the Shrine.

It's kinda similar to how Jesuits are priests, but not all priests are Jesuits.

I'm dead inside anyway. You think they'll let me ride around in the little car before they off me?

Forget that that. Can you say I believe in God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

KofC shouldn't impede this. BTW I'm not KofC.

So much hatred. So much mis-information.

I can't help anybody through this medium.

I'm a Mason as were my dad, uncles on that side and grandfather. I have many masonic friends at all levels including Scottish Rite and York Rite. I sit by a 33rd degree mason in church nearly every Sunday morning.

We have never hated anyone, worshiped the devil, certainly not killed anyone, or done the work of some super secret society. We are very much like the Knights of Columbus.

Muslims won't fit into our organization due to a different idea as to exactly who God is.

I gotta go to bed now. I have to get up early because it's my turn to supply the goat at the York Rite training tomorrow.

I CAN. Can you?

Every person in my lodge can and do. Every one on my family can and do.

Exactly what is your problem?

Please understand that Masonry is not a religion. I am a Christian. Masonry is about the same to me as being in the local v.f.d. I am in several organizations of which none of them conflict with my faith.


ETA: they all help our fellow man in the manner Jesus would want us to.

I've got no problem. I simply put forth what this society is understood to be about. You vehemously acted in debunking the understanding. I asked you to pray with me. You responded that you can. As in capable of doing so. I asked you to invoke the Son of God in prayer. You simply said you can, and attacked me. Let's pray. You'll sleep well.

MUST believe in God in order to become a Mason.


I don’t know who taught you, but this is wrong.

You have to believe in a supreme being. I’ve seen the Qur’an open.

If you want to try and walk across the frozen tundra, then you have to believe in god (be a Christian).

All I know is that my grandpaw was apparently somewhat deeply involved in it. They had a huge ceremony at his funeral and tons of masons showed up.

There definitely is a secret hand shake and other secret things they don’t talk about. When he meet new people, he immediately knew if they were masons by some detail in there greeting or handshake. I never knew if the greeting handshake or whatever was the “secret handshake” everyone talks about or if there was another one.

Also out of nowhere, I won the mason scholarship when I graduated high school without even knowing it existed or applying for it. Not even sure they gave it out every year. Few year later, my first cousin won it.

I'm attacking you because you are attacking an organization while showing no actual knowledge of it. Your attacks are aggravating. If you want to discuss please be less agitating. ..... Baptist, nuff said. What's that all about. They aren't Christians?

I will pray when, where, and how I want. It will be to God through Jesus Christ. It will not be in some thread in a forum such as this and in some preconceived form. I don't have to prove anything to you are any other.

I was offering information from a learned position. If you don't want to see "vehemously" I'd suggest you approach the subject differently and not be a pain in the butt to the person passing out information.

Uhhh, it's the first question on the form you fill out requesting to join. It's above where you write your name. It didn't say supreme being when I joined.

I wish you well. You obviously look to be entrapped and not yet of level 33.

May God be with you.

What? Entrapped? In what? Who do you think you are? You are obviously stuck on yourself and what you, in your infinite ignorance, think you know. You are most certainly not at "level 33". That isn't even how it is referenced.

God IS with me and has been for over 70 years. Perhaps He will impart some REAL knowledge of Masonry upon you some day. G'nite.

Be of lawful age. Believe in a supreme being. Be of good moral character.

Seems like the form you have is altered to shoo away folks. Do y’all recognize PHA Masons?

There is a show on Netflix where they show what actually goes on at the hq lodge for Masons in London.
