You are NOT getting in over your head. Masonry is not a religion or a cult or an alternate path to salvation. It is not an organization that runs the world. It is one of the largest charitable organizations in the world giving over $1.5 million a day to charity. I know you didn't want what they really stand for, but with all the garbage that others have posted, someone needed to post a little reality.

Because they represent all Religons (anyone who believes in ANY higher power can join, even Agnostics, etc)
Thus, evangelical Christians, (especially the Catholic Church), fundamentalists Muslims, and other major religous groups seem them as a threat. Thus they start all these crazy rumors about the freemasons being baby-eating cannibals and that they secretly run the US government.

It's a great philanthropic organization.
You couldn't find a nicer bunch of guys.
BUT they profess an alternate plan of salvation and the third degree ritual has elements that are incompatible with His Word.

They are a secretive organization which is steeped in ritual. Most people fear that which they do not know and the average American has no idea what the freemasons actually do.
