Freemasons don't worship the devil. In fact, a man cannot join the fraternity if he worships the devil. Duh.



Freemasons don't practice 'occult arts.'



There's no 'eye' or board or ring that's important to Freemasons.



The Lodge room isn't dark. If it was, we couldn't see where we were walking to. Duh.



NOTES:



David Icke knows nothing about Freemasonry or .. .well, anything. He's just a crazy that feeds on the ignorance of others.

The "eye" is simply a representation of the all seeing eye of God. It is NOT a Freemason symbol in and of itself. It has been used in many applications, including the trademark of Pinkerton. Rings are not important, although many Freemasons wear them. They symbolize membership and pride in membership. The "board?" If you mean the "trestleboard" It's what we call our monthly news letter. The rooms are NOT kept dark. OK, there are times when the lights are lowered, but in general lodge rooms are brightly lit. Unless of course they are not being used, then I suppose they are dark, as the lights are OFF. Occult arts? I don't think so....None practiced, sorry to disappoint you.

The symbols come from the masons who built cathedrals across Europe.



But the Freemasons just like a bit of theatre. The symbolism and the dark add to the sense of the mysterious...



@Tao Man, their required to be deists, not theists. There is a difference.

Freemasony, like all secret societies, is based on fear and greed. To instill fear in subjects they are required to be blindfolded, placed in dark sinister rooms and have a sword placed at their throat. Whereupon they make these blood curdling vows of total obedience - should they betray any secrets it will cost them their lives, quite literally.

The greed part is that as brother masons they can expect preferential treatment, big bonuses, exam passes they haven't earned, immunity from prosecution (look how many top people just walk away from court cases).

Modern freemasonry does employ satanic rituals and various other forms of magical ceremony, the rituals are used to invoke thought-forms and entities from the astral planes who are used to create wealth and success and also to strike down enemies of the craft. They may sneer at the paranormal in public but masons use it all the time to feather their nests.

ALL top political leaders are masons - Obama, Cameron, Sarkozy, Putin - so are opposition leaders (what price democracy now). Freemasonry infects every industry, art, sport and activity and is rampant in the police and judiciary (so much for justice).

It amazes me that none of this is discussed in the media, with it's love of conspiracies, and it almost never appears on television, yet the craft pervades every corner of people's lives.

You are right to ask your question, keep asking and seeking the truth.

The demonisation of Freemasonry really annoys me. Yes they love their symbols and esoteric rituals but honestly it is all just a bit of theatre, they are just an organisation, they do a lot of work for charity and don't do any harm. (apart from being a bit sexist towards women.)

The bible speaks of that men and women love darkness over light because there deeds are evil.



The eye on the deerskin apron is Osiris, an ancient god of Egypt.



in the ancient craft of buildiung, even today efforts and even non masons dio things to



make builings, sites work for there project or efforts.

Wow kid, you really love conspiracy theories, don't you. Masons are required to be Theists, that means they must believe in a "god" but not necessarily the Christian god nor follow the Christian religion.



You really need to catch up!
