Yes they do. Check Aleister Crowley. The two heads of Satanism are the sects O.T.O (Ordo Templi Orientis) and O.T.A (Ordo Templi Atlantis). There are other secret societies that are based on them and they try to establish the new world order by controling the 5 billion and more people that live in this world.

"Two-thirds of Freemasons never realize the untruth of the line they are fed as to the identity of the Great Architect, because it is deliberately kept hidden from them. It is no overstatement to say that most Freemasons, even those without strong religious convictions would never have joined the Brotherhood if they had not been the victims of this subtle trick".
"The true name, although not the nature of the Masonic god, is revealed only to those Third Degree Masons who elect to be "exalted" to the Holy Royal Arch.""In the ritual of exaltation, the name of the Great Architect of the Universe is revealed as JAH-BUL-ON - not a general umbrella term open to any interpretation an individual Freemason might choose but a precise designation that describes a specific supernatural being - a compound deity composed of three separate personalities fused into one. Each syllable of the "ineffable name" represents one personality of this trinity:
JAH = Jahweh, the God of the Hebrew.
BUL = Baal, the ancient Canaanite fertility god associated with "licentious rites of imitative magic".
"ON = Osiris, the ancient Egyptian god of the underworld
Coil records this in his Encyclopedia on page 516 as,
"Jah, Bel, and On appear in the American ritual of the Royal Arch degree on the supposition that Jah was the Syriac name of God, Bel (Baal) the Chaldean, and On, the Egyptian."
Anyone with a reasonable amount of Sunday School training will recall the great difficulties that the nation of Israel experienced whenever they became caught in the practice of Baal worship. 1 Kings, chapter 18 records the showdown between Elijah, the true prophet, the 450 prophets of Baal, and the 400 prophets of the grove. Verse 24 of chapter 18 says,
"And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God."
The account goes on to tell us that Baal did not, indeed, could not answer the 450 prophets, while God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob answered Elijah and consumed not only the offering, but also the wet wood and the trench full of water around the offering. Subsequently, the prophets of Baal were executed as they were false and had led the people of Israel into false idolatry.

To be a Mason you must acknowledge the existence of a Supreme Being. This is generally accepted as being God rather than Satan but never actually specified. However as many of the things that Masons do involve raising money for charity and supporting their members and their families who have fallen on hard times it would seem unlikely that this would be compatible with devil-worship.

No.
However, certain Rites within the Masons do eventually mention Lucifer, the Bearer of Light, at their highest degrees. This is not viewed as devil worship because it is not a being of evil they worship but one of light and truth.

thats just silly. sorry but no. The Masons are not a secret society. the times of their meetings and memebership rolls are open to all to see. They are a society with secrets, however.
But that would be like saying Coca-Coal is a secret society because they will not release their formula to the world.
Without divulging these secrets, I can tell you the goal of Masonry is individual character improvement, not anything sinister.

Not quite.
The Masons are a Society with SECRETS.
They are all available for anyone to know if just searched for.
Masons worship Maha Bone.
That is, the origin of the Ganges River. (Exact details on file.)
By claiming it is "THE RELIGION" it certainly is NOT of Christ.

I thought they worshipped Pan. I doubt they consider it to be satan.
Pan the son of Hermes, the pastoral goat god.
(The Christians stole it's image and made it into the devil symbol).
