That if there wasn't a huge veil of secrecy around them, they would be seen in approximately the same light as extreme dungeon and dragons players are traditionally seen (no offence). It's all about image - if you keep what you get up to secret, it creates an aura of danger and importance. But what it really is is a bunch of grown men dressing up and reciting silly phrases. Nothing wrong with that, but don't try and pretend it's part of ancient pre-Solomon religious rituals!

If anyone did know any Freemason secrets here (which I seriously doubt), then they would not tell you, as secrets as kept secret, and they would not be secrets if everyone knew. And given the society of the Freemasons, they would not tell you, because it would underlie everything they do these days.

I hate to easily provide it away, notwithstanding the answer's rather effortless. it really works like this. each and every time you click on a brick, it gives you that determination for your finished. once you've the right finished, then it helps you to by. To submit your finished, you click a particular spot on the wall (and certain, it truly is an glaring position to click). notwithstanding the submit button merely works once you've a valid finished. Too few bricks, and also you gained't get any reaction. Too many bricks, and it tells you that you're literally not worth. To sparkling up the countless different stuff - each and every state is diverse. the girl on the proper found her dad's cipher e book - I actually have one myself. yet no longer all Masonic books are written in cipher - merely the rituals (and then merely mainly states). So the guy above me found a e book that wasn't in cipher. in the different case, the secrets and techniques of Freemasonry are not that secret. This web site would not reveal any of the secrets and techniques, yet they have a hyperlink to a area that does (type of).

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 next stated meeting when the Worshipful Master will appoint an investigating committee who will interview the petitioner in person. these members will report back to the Lodge at the next stated meeting when the members present will vote on the petitioner. Once the petitioner is accepted he is given the three degrees of Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craw and the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason. There are certain requirements which a candidate must meet before proceeding from one degree to the next.
One must obtain the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason before he can wear any Masonic jewelry. One must have a Belief in a Supreme Being. The Tenets of the Masonic Lodge are
" Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth. " The Masonic Fraternity is NOT a Secret Society but Rather Society with Secrets. No matter what one has heard the Masonic Fraternity is NOT Satanic in nature nor is it connected with any Fraternal Order outside the accepted Masonic Fraternity Family.
If you are interested in pursuing interest in the Masonic Fraternity and are over 18 years of age suggest you contact a man whom you know to be a Mason for further information and a petition. If under the age of 18 request information regarding 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 for those under 18. For the requirements needed to join these Ladies Organizations please contact the Masonic Lodge as requirements may 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.

The penalty for revealing of the knowledge is death. So I do not think any will be displayed in such a public forum.
The death penalty thing started with the first Mason, but that is public knowledge.

Yes, the cost of mortar has been artificially inflated. That is why mason work is no longer free.
