Freemasonry is much misunderstood. Anyone can become a member. All that is required is that they ask to join and they must believe in God. While it has all types of interesting ceremonies with historical meanings, there's nothing mystical or evil about it. Powerful people join because their friends are members just as the average man joins because his friends are members or because he hopes to make some friends. The freemasons are good men. They support the children's hospital and any child is allowed to be treated there for free. They believe in being honorable and trustworthy men. If I was in a pinch and needed help, I would ask any freemason and accept him at his word. If you wish to find out more, ask a mason to help you become a member and he will.

Pink there are people that can help you!
Masons have been very successful throughout their existance which can be traced back to the 14th century. Mozart, Harry Hudini were just a few you probably did not know about. But as my brother said earlier not as many presidents were Masons as most think. None of the Bushes are nither was Clinton, or Kerry. I dont know any Mason who would Top Line Bill Clinton. Chaney and Rumsfeld are masons which will probably give you a reason for another rant. We take an oath to help our brothers so if your successful you help your brother by lifting him up which helps make everyone a better men!

First of all, less than half of the presidents have been Freemasons, 14 to be exact (although a couple more might have been). First, since there have been millions of Freemasons since its founding in the 16th century, statistically speaking there is a high probability of many of those members being quite successful people. Second, Freemasonry's stated goal is to make good men better and to give them fraternal support in improving their personal and professional lives by teaching lessons of morality and encouraging them to be active in their communities. This goal will, of course, lead directly to making men become more successful and productive in their lives. Third, that stated goal will naturally attract men of good quality to the organization after they are already successful. John Wayne became a Freemason after he was already an international movie star. Michael Richards (Kramer on 'Seinfeld') became a Freemason after he learned that his hero, Red Skelton, was a Freemason. I became a Freemason late in life, after my career was already established.
A couple of excellent books have been published recently:
Freemasons for Dummies
A Complete Idiot's Guide to Freemasonry

Not true, Mark Twain, not true. Almost all of the presidents have been freemasons, this is true. One president that wasn't a freemason? Kennedy. I'll leave that be, that's another rant. Our current president is a freemason, as are his father, Former Pres. Clinton, and John Kerry. Kerry and Bush Jr. are actually part of the same fraternity (the cub scouts of freemasonry), Skull and Bones. George Bush Sr.'s "secret name" is Magog. If you'll do a little research, Magog is the leader of Satan's army in the bible.
It is a very creepy organization, indeed. There are many theories as to why they are so powerful. One (mine) is that it is just a very influential game of dress up. They only let the influential in so can have power. One EXTREME theory is that they are inhabited by beings at their induction ceremony known as lizards. These "Lizards" are other dimentional entities that feed off of our negative energy AKA Bad vibes. They come here to rule so that they can keep us in misery, produce the illusion of separation (that we are all not One and should treat each other as we would treat ourselves), and just be down right d!cks. That, as I said, is an extremist theory. But, looking at Cheney, I can see where they got that idea.
Most freemasons in anytown, america are upper middle to upper class citizens who sit in positions of authority.
Freemasons DO practice ritual magic, but they claim NOT to be occult (don't see how that isn't occult, but, whatever). To prove that freemasonry is still prevalent in america, look up something called bohemian grove. It's a festival FM's where they sacrifice the effigy of a baby to what I think, not entirely sure, is a giant owl. Spooky and Nonsensical? You bet. Also, look up a guy named David Ike. He's been researching this stuff for years. He's why we know about bohemian grove.
Hope I helped at all!!!

The answer is simple.
Free Masonry takes a good man and makes him better. To find out how, ask 1 who is 1.

I once looked them up on the www, there was information
about them, and on the same site about UFOs.
I thought, "What do they have to do with Unidentified
Flying Objects"????
That was strange.
They are alive and well in the U.S. I don't know about
them being Mormons.
It's a big world.

Freemasonry works as a secret society only in Europe nowadays. But it has been exposed.
The only real Freemasons left in North America are the Mormons.
