Answer 1

Personally I have never bought into all that Illuminati stuff that trichbopp... said. I think the whole Illuminati thing is a bit whacko and depends on the highly unlikely probability that a Satanic cult has been successfully operation and controlling the entire world behind the scenes of power since the begining of time unbeknownst and undetected by the majority of people on this planet. It is theory that relies on alot of stretches of the imagination and ignores the most simplest of solutions, that the rich are greedy corrupt b_stards who have really needed a Luciferian reason to do corrupt things. Money and Power have always been their driving force.

Ockham's Razor teaches us that when we have two theories with similar ends, (in this case secret societies as satanists and secret societies as part of greedy globalists) to study the simplest of theories to establish priorities.

What is more likely that Higher level members of Masonic orders are part of globalist cabals of the wealthy elite, or a dark satanic force that has been hidden for thousands of years? What is more likely that greedy bankers, Tycoons of industry and media barons want to control the people and purse strings of the world for their own selfish gains, or control the world for a dark Luciferian purpose?

Freemasonry is an oath bound fraternal order of men which derives from the medieval fraternity of Freemasonry. We adhere to many of the Ancient Charges, laws, customs and legends of operative Freemasonry. We are loyal to the civilian government under which we exist. We inculcate moral and social virtues by symbolic application of the operative stonemasons' working tools and by allegories, lectures and charges. Freemasonry obligates its members to obey the principles of brotherly love, equality, mutual aid, secrecy and confidence. We have secret modes of recognition that permit members to recognize each other as brothers. We require a through examination into the mental, moral and physical qualifications of a petitioner and we admit men into the fraternity by secret ceremonies based in part on legends of the Craft.

Once a person has decided to apply for membership he fills out a petition signed by 2 members of the Lodge he desires to join. He gives the petition to one of the members along with the required initiation fee. The petition is read at the Lodges next stated meeting when the Worshipful Master will appoint an investigating committee. The investigation committee will interview the petitioner in person and will report back to the Lodge at the next stated meeting at which time the petitioner is voted on by the members present. Once the petitioner is accepted he is given the three degrees of Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft and then the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason. There are certain requirements a candidate must meet before he can proceed from one degree to the next.

One must obtain the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason before he is allowed to wear any Masonic jewelry. One must have a Belief in a Supreme Being. The tenets of the Masonic Fraternity are " Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth. " The Masonic Fraternity is NOT a Secret Society but rather a Society with Secrets. No matter what you have heard the Masonic Fraternity is NOT Satanic in nature nor is it connected with the Illuminati or any other non - Masonic Fraternity.

Suggest if you are interested in pursuing interest in the Masonic Fraternity if over the age of 18 you contact a man whom you know to be a Mason for further information and a petition. If you are under the age of 18 suggest you inquire about the DeMolay Organization.

If you are a lady the Masonic Fraternity offers the Order of Eastern Star if over 18 or the Order of Rainbow Girls or Job's Daughters if under 18. for the requirements for joining these Lady Organizations please contact the local Masonic Affiliation as requirements can vary from State to State.

If no local Masonic Lodge is available suggest you contact the Grand Lodge of Masons for the State in which you reside
