My father is a freemason, and he is completely normal. He tells me that that what they do is simply have big dinners, and discuss human rights and ethic questions. He tells me that the masonic-logde is open to anyone, and does not oppose any religious group or whatsoever. But the internet is flooded by people who claims that the freemasons is satanic and all sorts of rumours.

Why are these people so opposed to the freemasonry? Is there something to it?

Your father is absolutely right. Freemasonry is NOT a religion, it's a fraternity. People from all religions are accepted equally, as religion is NOT the focal point of a lodge. However, the Holy Bible, is the centerpiece of most lodges int he United States. In mine, we have the Torah and Quran as well. Religious tolerance has always been at the core of the founding of the United States, sounds familiar? There are 2 topics that can niot be discussed in the masonic lodge. Politics and religion.



People are opposed to what they don't understand or WANT to learn about. Freemasons keep things to themselves, and don't openly talk about what happens in lodge, so people are suspect of it. That's strange, because the other fraternal groups are as secretive, but no one accuses them of worshiping Satan. Go figure.



As far as David's post. Ignore him, He is a liar, and he knows it. He has admitted to it. The bookk that he is referring to is one entitled "Morals and Dogma" written by Albert Pike. In ONE line of a book of OVER 900 pages is a reference to the name Lucifer, a Roman reference to the planet Venus. I forget how the Romans spelled it, but the name translates to LIGHT BRINGER, referring to the "star", the planet Venus, that precedes the Sun in the morning sky. THAT'S DAVID'S PROOF. The problem is that some people believe the garbage, and it spreads. Kinda nice way for a so-called CHRISTIAN to act....

Nope, Freemasonry is not a satanic cult. Freemasonry is a social fraternity. The Roman Catholic Church is neither distorted nor misleading. You, on the other hand, make some seriously distorted and misleading statements. It's unlikely that - at nine years old - you ever 'realized' ANYTHING was distorted or misleading within the Church. The truth is that you were never a Catholic. You probably were never baptized (the First Sacrament), and - at 9 - you were certainly never confirmed (the Second Sacrament), which means you couldn't receive the Eucharist (the Third Sacrament of Initiation). No one is "born" Roman Catholic. It's also unlikely that your "friend" was a devout Christian, or that they left for the "same reason" you did; you weren't a Christian, you probably never even attended church. At 9, you probably only ever went to Sunday School. It's also unlikely that you're in search of the "TRUTH." You're lying in your question. A liar doesn't look for the truth. As Freemasonry is a social fraternity - not a religion by ANY stretch - you're not going to find what you're looking for there; Freemasonry only makes good men better. You also cannot "enroll" in the "Masonic Fraternity." So ... another lie. Finally, you didn't denounce the Catholic Church. You don't know anything about it, you were never a Catholic, and you're most certainly not a Christian. You can't really denounce something you don't know anything about, you can only make uninformed statements, which are quite obviously flawed. Unfortunately, the FINAL error in your statement is that you've made a decision to be a Mason. Freemasonry requires a belief in a Supreme Being. You've pretty much rejected Christ at this point, which means you're ineligible for membership in the fraternity. You've got to fix yourself before anyone will allow you to join Freemasonry. Find a Bible-based church in your area, talk to the pastor or father, and beg for forgiveness. NOTES: - The answerer who claims that one "MUST, as you should know, believe in God in order to even ask to join" is completely incorrect; the requirement is to believe in a Supreme Being. This answerer is NOT a Freemason - just like the asker. - The answerer who claims to be a "Masonic Chaplain" is NOT a Freemason - just like the asker.

Because many people like fancy complicated lies and conspiracies more than plain truth. Freemasonry Is Not Satanic- that is it.

No, the Catholics tried to destroy Freemasons, and FAILED. This put a BIG BUG up their *sses. They will not let it go.



They have a habit of labeling everything "satanic". Since Christians are the only ones who believe that satan exists, does not that make them "satanic"?



Freemasons started as a Catholic group, not Baptist or Mormon. The Freemasons predate Mormons by CENTURIES.



David, I'm a pastor too. You should be defrocked by whatever cockamamie religion that "frocked" you. You are all frocked up.



To newly born. Take a look at Israel. They have made the desert bloom like a rose. Southern Israel is all desert. Its called the NEGEV DESERT. It now has farms that grow food to feed almost the whole country. Kibutzes. Collective farms.

Because you aren't required to be a Christian to be a mason. They are very spiritual with an open belief system (at least my family members).



Churches have pounded into Christian's heads that anything that doesn't follow *their* strict religious teachings is satanic. . Gotta keep the money going to their church, after all.



Blacksho..... lol. Wow, teachings that are not biblical? How about that whole 'rapture' thing by John Darby. Hadn't even been heard of before 1812... he just had it added to the freakin' bible. Follow which bible? The up to date one with changes made as churches see fit?

I don't think they are satanic. The masons I know personally are all good hard working men. When certain groups have secrets, other people usually think the worst for some reason. I am a Christian and I don't believe the masons are worshipping satan.

Because they've been suckered in by all the idiotic conspiracy theories floating around.



I think the thing that scares people the most is that it's secret. They think that if it's secretive, Freemasons must be doing something they're not supposed to be doing.

"freemasonry rejects the truth that JESUS IS GOD, so freemasonry has a different and fake "god" that leads people to hell"



It's safe to say that "David" hasn't the foggiest what freemasonry is actually about, the poor beggar.



"Why are these people so opposed to the freemasonry? Is there something to it?"



They are probably intimidated by the fact it's a group who manage to take members from any religious stance whatsoever and be together in a truly polyvalent way whilst maintaining each members individual beliefs unopposed. They also do a lot of charity work and are very proactive about it.

They have some teachings which they claim to be of G-d, but which are not Biblical. For instance, the whole mythology of the 'Master Mason" and the apron.



This fits the definition of a Christian cult.

They probably believe what the Bible says about God forcing the Jews to eat their own children for dinner!



CANNIBALISM IS ONE OF THE MAJOR THEMES IN THE BIBLE!



Christianity is a powerful primitive religious fetish that still manages to blend into our modern society using ONLY the marketable stories in the Bible, but not the real ugly ones! The Bible writers say that the GOD that they put together FORCED the Jews to eat their own children for dinner NOT AS A PUNISHMENT, but as a natural “WILL OF GOD!” God NEVER objected any cannibalism. In fact, God never issued any law against cannibalism. God Jehovah/Jesus/Trinity or what have you is on record forcing his especially “chosen” people to slaughter and cook their own children for dinner! The Bible God prohibits the Jews to eat PIGS, but NOT CHILDREN! There is a complaint about sacrificing children to God Moloch, but NOT TO THE BIBLE GOD! Today, Abraham would be in jail for the attempted murder of his son Isaac, and Jephthah would be on death row for having his own young virgin daughter sacrificed on the Altar of The LORD (Judges 11), but in the Bible stories they are the Heroes of the Faith! Any religion back then was as primitive and savage as you can’t possibly imagine. The Bible God is totally powerless to teach the Jews any lesson without FORCING them to eat their own children for dinner, but they still won’t convert to Christianity. The Jews know they got themselves into a mess of historical proportions for writing the Bible. No other evil hurt humanity as much as the Judeo/Christian/Muslim religion based on that Bible. IMHO, the Jews ought to come up with a solution so we can all live in peace!



According to the Bible writers Palestine was a “Land Flowing with Milk and Honey,” but after the Jews landed in the “Promised Land” the milk and honey stopped flowing! So they began to promise that “God will make the desert to blossom like a rose!” The perennial carrot hanging from a string at the end of a stick is still working not only for religious Jews, but it is earning MILLIONS for the Clergy & Preachers especially since the “going to Heaven when you die” idea was put together!



NO SMUTTY PUBLICATION TODAY IS PUTTING OUT ANYTHING AS VICIOUS AS THE BIBLE STORIES ON CANNIBALISM!



Leviticus 26:29 - (without warning of any evil or any punishment God is anxiously saying to his Holy people) YOU WILL eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters…* (*this Jewish God is not suggesting that they eat PIG against his Law, instead he is FORCING them to eat their own “kosher” CHILDREN for dinner!)



The tender meat of an 8 year old boy or girl flavored with some spicy Texas sauce would taste delicious to any Christian pedophile! The Bible writers say that to non Christians the Bible stories are “FOOLISHNESS” (1 Cor 2:14). Actually they are not foolishness, but PUKING SMUTTY CRAP that Christians are really afraid to question their pastors about!



Deuteronomy 28:53-57 - Because of the suffering that your enemy will inflict on you during the siege* (*God is anxiously saying), YOU WILL EAT THE FRUIT OF THE WOMB, THE FLESH OF THE SONS AND DAUGHTERS the LORD your God has given you* (*the Jews won’t eat PIGS in obedience to God! But THEY WILL EAT their own children!) Even the most gentle and sensitive man* (*not a gay, or a “Godless” atheist, or an abortionist, but a FAITHFUL CHOSEN MAN OF GOD!) among you will have no compassion on his own brother or the WIFE HE LOVES or his SURVIVING CHILDREN, and he will not give to one of them any of the flesh of his children that he is eating…* (*Not sharing your favorite child dish with your spouse is a shameful “SIN” that sends people to Hell!)



Jeremiah 19:9 I* (*God, NOT SATAN, but GOD!) WILL MAKE THEM EAT THE FLESH OF THEIR SONS AND DAUGHTERS* (Christians still claim that NOBODY can resist the WILL of this John 3:16 God! The Jews WILL BE FORCED TO EAT their own children for dinner no matter what, while at the same time gays must be stoned to death, along with PREGNANT ladies who are alleged to have committed adultery, or for not having cried when raped!)



The Bible writers are excited to predict that when the “666” trademark of the ANTI-CHRIST will be set up, Christians WON’T BE ABLE TO BUY OR SELL FOOD or anything else without it. Will they start eating their own children again like in the good old Bible times?



Ezekiel 5:10 - Therefore in your midst fathers WILL EAT THEIR CHILDREN*... (*this HOLY CRAP is ALL OVER THE BIBLE! Christians don’t see it because they are now in love with “Jesus”)



Any kind of government would allow their people to eat pork instead of their own children! It took Moses 2 men to carry a single cluster of gigantic size grapes to show the Israelites how plentiful was the Land of Palestine that they were going to invade (Num 13:23)! The Bible writers had well fed Jews in Egypt COVETING something that wasn’t theirs just before giving them the 10 Commandments with the “Thou shalt not covet!” stamped in them! As the Jews invaded the “Promised Land Flowing with Milk and Honey” they never found the giant grapes. They had to eat their own children to survive! Hardly any lady needed to abort in those days. God FORCED them to eat their chiildren after they were born! It is written ALL over the Bible!



Lamentations 4:10 - With their own hands COMPASSIONATE WOMEN* (*Not lesbians or atheist ladies, but “Jesus loving” women!) HAVE COOKED THEIR OWN CHILDREN...!* (*DONE! as God had promised! But relax all this crap was in the mind of the Bible writers! Our US Government officials swear on this smutty Bible – no wonder we are so screwed up!)



CANNIBALISM in the Bible is in FULL EXPLICIT CONTEXT that is IMPOSSIBLE for any Preacher to “spiritualize” and make it disappear. That is why I had to quit Christianity and religion altogether!



2 Kings 6:26-29 As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried to him, “Help me, my lord the king!” The king replied, “If the Lord* (*God/Jehovah/Allah/Trinity/Jesus!) does not help you, where can I get help for you? Then he asked her, “What's the matter?” She answered, “This woman said to me, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him today, and tomorrow we'll eat my son.’ So we cooked my son and ate him* (*BTW, it tasted delicious!!!). The next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him, but she had hidden him!* (*GODAMMIT! She cheated!)



They were all COMPASSIONATE Godly, not atheist, or Lesbian, but heterosexual women who HAVE SLAUGHTERED AND COOKED THEIR OWN CHILDREN FOR DINNER at the tune of “The LORD is my Shepherd I shall not have any want” (Psalm 23, or 24 if Catholic)!



Isaiah 49:15 “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I* (*God) WILL NOT FORGET YOU!* (*God is very consistent, he may serve your child for dinner!!!)



The last bunch of Bible writers claim that God the Son Jesus Christ was beaten to a pulp thoroughly tenderized and heavily marinated in Roman soldiers’ spit to become the “Spotless Lamb of God” nailed TOTALLY NAKED to a Holy Cross in a primitive Heathen ritual to cleanse the “sin” of Eve in her quest for knowledge! BTW, there is no record that the Roman soldiers ever dressed the genital area of their victims in a white diaper or that anybody nailed to a cross enjoyed a foot rest so they could have a long chat on religious issues within hearing distance of the Bible writers! In the Holy Communion the Christians now snack Jesus’ delicious SPIT FLAVORED MEAT and, like vampires, DRINK HIS BLOOD to go to Heaven when they die (John 6:53)! Since the cannibalistic fetish is all over the Bible the forever snacking God the Son Jesus Christ in the Holy Communion is so NATURAL to Christians!



The Bible writers say that God’s enemies ought to be killed in their infancy when it is easier to get rid of them! That’s a bit smarter than Allah getting the Holy Jihadists to bomb themselves in a busy city street!



Psalm 137:8-9 * O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, HAPPY is he who repays you for what you have done to us* (*Holy Vendetta!) --he who seizes your infants and DASHES them against the rocks* (*after the kids are dashed against the rocks they can be cooked for dinner, or trashed in the dumpster!)



Needed abortions today are for HUMANE reasons! Only the fetus is destroyed not a born child! Obviously, the Bible God wants some grown children of the “enemy” to be dashed to pieces while the kids of his chosen people are cooked for dinner!



Isaiah 13:16 (KJV) Their little ones also WILL BE DASHED TO PIECES before their eyes; Their houses will be plundered AND THEIR WIVES RAVISHED* (*not fondled, but ravished!).



In the erotic mind of the Bible writers any lady would be ravished to their orgasmic delight, while their children are being DASHED TO PIECES. Some Christians, especially in the Clergy are getting off like mad worshipping this kinda GOD!)



Revelation 2:23 (In his apocalyptic “revelation” Jesus Christ says) I WILL STRIKE HER CHILDREN DEAD* (*abortionists destroy fetuses ONLY WHEN NEEDED, but JESUS is killing real children! Most right wing Christians really love to hear that Jesus is going to kill the children in the wrong Church! They get rich selling books on “Jesus loves the little children,” but only of the right Church brand!). Then ALL THE CHURCHES WILL KNOW that I am he who searches hearts and minds and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.* (*not even the Mafia talks like that in public! For Christians to be “CHRIST LIKE” must include killing children in the wrong Churches… spiritually speaking, of course!)
