Masonic term of the goat is an inside joke. Back in the day when you couldn't see trick would be done on the candidate or joking of as the candidate had no idea what to expect.
The link of skull and bones to freemasonry is the claim that the founder of Skull and Bones went to Germany at the time of the Bavarian Illuminati was disbanded and joined than started the chapter here. The link of the Bavarian Illuminati and Masons is the founder was a Master mason and all the members to my research were Masons. The philosophy of the Bavarian Illuminati is debated among Masons as some dislike it. Not many have seen the true degrees to have a structured debate. Many writings have been speculative or twisted from person to person. Some of the original degrees are on file in a historical society in Germany.

As far as I know as a Mason, there is no connection between the two groups. Most fraternal groups in western culture have been patterned after Freemasonry, including college fraternities/sororities, Scouting, and strangely the Mormons.
There are several groups or organizations that have been thought to control policy either on a local or global extent, however if you look at the whole picture of national policy it seems extremely unlikely. Conspiracy theorist will pick and choose events that support their "theory" but a close and objective examination will show these to be an exercise in making the facts fit. A good example of this was the movie "23"...
I haven't hear the term "ride the goat" in Masonry, however some lodges have in the past "hazed" a candidate before initiation. Often this "hazing" included jokes about greasing a pig or other attempts at humor.
Edit:
The 33rd degree is an "honorary" degree given to both masons and non-masons based on service to humanity.

yes i known it for years and they do occult ceremonies they also are connected to free masons its all idol worship. Not that its bad they believe in god and gods. Then Bush says how Christian he is and how Jesus tells him to invade Iraq and they show pictures of him in church. I am not knocking Skull and Bones or the masons I would like to join. But if I were Christian and I had voted for Bush I would feel betrayed and lied to for that. How can so many not realize. Like lambs to the slaughter. Be concerned now how come no one was concerned four years ago or 8 years ago. Its too late now the damage has been done and now everyone is gonna vote for Hillary also Skull and bones this will take the heat off the republicans but soon as she gets in there will be another attack like 9/11 and we'll be off to invade Iran.

They are very connected and intertwined with the Masons. Not sure what the other question mean, but can try and find out.
Yes, most of your Presidents have been members of the Skull and Bones Society, and Freemasons. Inculding John Quicny Adams, who was a 33rd% Mason, and unfortunately is my great,g,g,g,g, grandfather. My mother 's maiden name was Adams, and there is this unfortunate link.

The answer to your question is a resounding, yes. Many people choose to dismiss the roles of these "elitist" organizations because if they acknowledged that a minuscule percentage of wealth controls the world, they then would have to question just how much of a "democracy" we live under. If the small percentage of wealth controls the world then how do our votes matter? Allow me to let you in on a little secret, our votes DO NOT MATTER. The government (many of whom are in these "elitist societies") does what it wants. Its just easier on them if the citizens are fast asleep, thinking that their vote counts or their opinion as a citizen is important to the ones begging for their vote. If people fully understood that the government preaches one thing while doing another we would hold them more accountable for their actions, within the framework of democracy. Yeah,right !!

I'm not sure about that last question, but since Skull & Bones members are inherently wealthy and priveleged, there's much that can be done about them.
People do weird things. And sometimes those people run the country.

A forum like this would be the first thing they control, I never believed conspiracy theory until I joined this forum. You Q someting like "Does Ralph K..... work for j@hp0o" & suddenly my PC sends 3 times more data , than it recieves. I can't read content of my mail
To sign in takes hours and many more. I hope you see my answer . They are asking me to leave nicely.If they close my account it could be prove in a court of law.
They are making me more determint to take action against this "forum"

We should be as concerned with Skull and Bones at the national level as we should about the Kiwanis and Elks locally: they are all nepotistic old boys' clubs that refuse to offer open and equal access while concentrating dealmakers and powerwielders in closed situations away from public scrutiny and accountability.

Any group that doesn't tell people everything, just makes people assume the worst. They're fine. Trust me.
