Joining because you're poor isn't a reason to join. You join Freemasonry to become better than you are.

Freemasonry will not help your athletic ability. Petitioners for Freemasons in my jurisdiction must sign a statement that says that they realize that Freemasonry is not for financial or political gain.



Freemasonry is designed for good men of many faiths to be able to meet, be friends, and work towards helping other people. Masons support many areas of medical research and have benefited millions of people who have no clue that their lives have been saved or improved by the work of Freemasons. The basic morality found in most religions is stressed, but no particular religion is taught.



Masonry prohibits bigotry. Unfortunately religious leaders who do not know the Bible try to hide their ignorance by attacking other people instead of teaching about God. So, when you bring up Freemasonry, you are likely to get opinions from people who have never read the Bible, but who are willing to tell you what they think it should say, and they will claim to be Christians even though they will bear false witness against Masons. I feel sorry for people who think that the Message of Jesus was to hate their fellow Christians.



If you want to be a better man, if you want to be a better member of your faith, if you want to work to make the world a better place, if you want to help other people, if you want friends of good moral character, you can ask at your local Masonic Lodge.

I agree with werewolf. Joining the Freemasons will NOT help you financially and will not help you with your talent.



But I must add that the trolls that pass themselves off as Christians are not true Christians. True Christians do NOT pass judgment or spread lies about people like the Freemasons, because to do so would be breaking at least one commandment (thou shall not bear false witness about thy neighbor) and one command that Christ gave to us (judge not lest thee be judged). If these idiots that claim that Freemasons are evil actually did some real research (instead of listening to those bigoted conspiracy theories) they would realize just how wrong they are. The Freemason are NOT evil. We are NOT demonic. We do NOT worship Satan. We are NOT money grubbers. If these so-called Christians actually opened their eyes, they would 1) see that I am telling the truth, 2) the crusades (of the 1100's) are over, and 3) the Salem witch trials are over.



I guess that these Bible thumping nut jobs that I'm talking about realized that they are wrong because they haven't come back with any proof of their nonsense.



To say that the Freemasons are anything but what they truly are is offensive to the educated, the real Christians and the Freemasons.

Go ahead and join them, but be aware that joining them will NOT improve your financial status and it will NOT improve your talents. Only hard work and practice (lots of it) can do that.



And to the trolls that claim that the Freemasons are evil. You have no proof of it. Only uneducated, ignorant and immature trolls would believe that kind of nonsense. To you, I say grow up and do some real research. Your nonsense is offensive to the people that have done the research, as well as Christians everywhere.

Talk to another Freemason.

BUT

Be forewarned...



Once you become a Freemason, there will be endless requests for your money to support Masonic Charities.



There is nothing "mysterious" about becoming a Freemason.

They just don't recruit -- you have to make the initial inquiry.



Freemasonry will not necessarily improve your talent, but it will definitely improve your networking. Networking MAY provide you with OPPORTUNITIES to improve your talent.

Freemasons is a cult that points people away from Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. I would turn to Christianity not Freemasons.

Go down to your lodge and ask. You need 2 people to sign you in before you are accepted.



But be warned, there is no honor in any of these elitist groups.
