Reality Check

But let's try to look at this using common sense:
  • Does it seem reasonable to think that some 3-5 million Masons of today have all misunderstood what Masonry was really all about?
  • Is it conceivable that thousands of religious leaders and hundreds of thousands of devout religious followers have been 'tricked'?
  • Can you really believe that national leaders and common people are all sharing a common, secret agenda?
  • Do you think there is some incredible knowledge held by the small handful of those who protest against Freemasonry, and often argue amongst themselves on various issues such as religion, that transcends the knowledge and intelligence of the millions of Masons during the past three hundred years?
  • Could tens of millions of people over the past three hundred years - including leaders in all walks of religious, political, educational, and other fields - all have been so totally and completely wrong - while the small handful of those who have opposed Freemasonry during that same period be right?
  • Can people who don't agree on what the 'proper' version of the Bible is and argue over who are 'legitimate' preachers really be correct in this specific matter?
  • And finally - IF Masonry was so evil, why haven't more people 'defected'? Why isn't Masonry more secretive? Why aren't there more exposes? Why, oh, why?

Freemasonry On TV (Video)

Something I found while viewing a freemason forum. I found it very interesting, although it took a little while for me to download, it’s about 22 min long.

Freemasonry Today (Video)

Hopefully it will be of interest to you.

Define:

Freemasonry is a fraternal organization whose membership is held together by shared moral and metaphysical ideals and—in most of its branches—by a constitutional declaration of belief in a Supreme Being.

This definition was found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freemason


The Beginning

Good day. This is my first entry, so I think this is the correct place to tell you a little about what is going to be happening here.

Firstly I think it is fair to state that I am NOT a freemason. I have just found this to be a very interesting association, an association which I can relate to.

On this site I will be posting whatever information I find on freemasonry, there will be the good and the bad. This will consist of pretty much anything I can get my hands on, images, movies, ect.

Hope that you find the information interesting and useful.
