:eek: Freemasonary in England today
I have decided to write this thread and put some of the “myths” to rights on this forum, as a lot of members think they know “facts.” In reality, what you are about to read is “fact.”
This is fact because I say it is, as I am a Freemason in England today.
How it began in England:)
It is not known. The earliest recorded 'making' of a Freemason in England is that of Elias Ashmole in 1646. Organised Freemasonry began with the founding of the Grand Lodge of England on 24 June 1717, the first Grand Lodge in the world. Ireland followed in 1725 and Scotland in 1736. All the regular Grand Lodges in the world trace themselves back to one or more of the Grand Lodges in the British Isles. There are two main theories of origin. According to one, the operative stonemasons who built the great cathedrals and castles had lodges in which they discussed trade affairs. They had simple initiation ceremonies and, as there were no City and Guilds certificates, dues cards or trade union membership cards, they adopted secret signs and words to demonstrate that they were trained masons when they moved from site to site. In the 1600s, these operative lodges began to accept non-operatives as "gentlemen masons". Gradually this non-operative took over the lodges and turned them from operative to 'free and accepted' or 'speculative' lodges. The other theory is that in the late 1500s and early 1600s, there was a group which was interested in the promotion of religious and political tolerance in an age of great intolerance when differences of opinion on matters of religion and politics were to lead to bloody civil war. In forming Freemasonry, they were trying to make better men and build a better world. As the means of teaching in those days was by allegory and symbolism, they took the idea of building as the central allegory on which to form their system. The main source of allegory was the Bible, the contents of which were known to everyone even if they could not read, and the only building described in detail in the Bible was King Solomon's Temple, which became the basis of the ritual. The old trade guilds provided them with their basis administration of a Master, Wardens, Treasurer and Secretary, and the operative mason's tools provided them with a wealth of symbols with which to illustrate the moral teachings of Freemasonry.
Freemasonry in England
All lodges in England are under the “United Grand Lodge of England” UGLE for short.
All lodges under the UGLE are issued with a warrant (This is proof that they follow the rules of UGLE) I can only visit lodges with this warrant, but lucky for me all Lodges in England are under the UGLE. And have this warrant.
Lodges outside of England
I can only visit lodges that are recognised by the UGLE, so I would have to check through my Lodge, a lot of Masonic groups in the USA are not under the UGLE so I could not visit them nor would I want to
The United Grand Lodge of England has 730 Lodges operating in a number of countries around the world.
Many of these Lodges are overseen by a District Grand Lodge, of which there are 32. Five groups of Lodges are too small to make up a District and are therefore overseen by a Grand Inspector. Twelve individual Lodges do not come under the jurisdiction of a District or Grand Inspector and are known as NUD Lodges.
Lodges in the USA:mad: :rolleyes:
A lot of Masonic groups in the USA are not under the UGLE so I could not visit them nor would I want to.
Freemasonry in the USA is a shambles and a lot of there Masonic groups are fake, they are made up, as anyone can say they are the head of an Masonic order.
You could start one “David’s Masonic Knights” but it would not be under the UGLE.
Overall the UGLE
Under the United Grand Lodge of England, there are 330,000 Freemasons, meeting in 8,644 lodges. There are separate Grand Lodges for Ireland (which covers north and south) and Scotland, with a combined membership of 150,000. Worldwide, there are probably 5 million members.
Are there 33 Degrees
The simple answer is no!:eek: :mad: :confused:
Freemasonry consists of the three 'Craft' degrees (Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft and Master Mason) completed by the Royal Arch degree (Chapter). There are many other Masonic degrees and Orders which are called 'additional' because they add to the basis of the Craft and Royal Arch. They are not basic to Freemasonry but add to it by further expounding and illustrating the principles stated in the Craft and Royal Arch. Some of these additional degrees are numerically superior to the third degree but this does not affect the fact that they are additional to and not in anyway superior to or higher than the Craft. The ranks that these additional degrees carry have no standing with the Craft or Royal Arch.
The 33 degree Scottish rite :rolleyes:
The local Scottish rite organization confers the 4th through 32nd degrees in degree-conferring meetings. The Scottish rite is sometimes called the "College of Freemasonry," because it uses extensive allegory and drama to emphasize the message of its degrees. The degree work may, but not necessarily, be completed at one time.
The Scottish Rite shares the belief of all Masonic organizations that there is no higher degree than that of Master Mason. The degrees are in addition to, and in no way "higher" than, those of Blue Lodge, or Craft Lodge, Masonry. Scottish Rite degrees simply amplify and elaborate on the lessons of the craft, providing further knowledge of Masonry, the building of the Temple, and ancient religions, with memorable lessons ranging from the days of chivalry to modern times.
The Scottish Rite in the name of a ritual, my lodge uses the ritual called “Commonsense”
The Knights Templar ;) :rolleyes:
The templar are real I know some and will be one in the future, they use my lodge.
To become a KT you must be a Master mason and have also the right to read Mark and Chapter degrees.
Then if you are lucky you will be asked to join…………..
Freemasonry and Religion
Freemasonry is not a religion, nor is it a substitute for religion. It demands of its members a belief in a Supreme Being but provides no system of faith of its own.
Freemasonry is open to men of all religious faiths. The discussion of religion at its meetings is forbidden.
The Supreme Being
The names used for the Supreme Being enable men of different faiths to join in prayer (to God as each sees Him) without the terms of the prayer causing dissention among them.
There is no separate Masonic God; a Freemason's God remains the God of the religion he professes.
Freemasons meet in common respect for the Supreme Being, but He remains Supreme in their individual religions, and it is no part of Freemasonry to attempt to join religions together. There is therefore no composite Masonic God.
Volume of the Sacred Law
The Bible, referred to by Freemasons as the Volume of the Sacred Law, is always open at every Masonic meeting.
The Obligation of Freemasonry
The Obligations taken by Freemasons are sworn on or involve the Volume of the Sacred Law, or the book held sacred by those concerned. They are undertakings to help keep secret a Freemason's means of recognition, and to follow the principles of Freemasonry.
The physical penalties, which are purely symbolic, do not form part of an Obligation. The commitment to follow the principles of Freemasonry is, however, deep.
Freemasonry Compared with Religion
Freemasonry lacks the basic elements of religion.
a) it has no theological doctrine, and by forbidding religious discussion at its meetings will not allow a Masonic theological doctrine to develop.
b) It offers no sacraments.
c) It does not claim to lead to salvation by works, by secret knowledge or by any other means. The secrets of Freemasonry are concerned with modes of recognition and not with salvation.
Freemasonry Supports Religion
Freemasonry is far from indifferent to religion. Without interfering in religious practice it expects each member to follow his own faith, and to place above all other duties his duty to God, by whatever name He is known. Its moral teachings are acceptable to all religions.
Freemasonry is thus a supporter of religion.
Freemasonry: Your Questions Answered
Q Why are you a secret society?
A We are not, but lodge meetings, like those of many other groups, are private and open only to members. The rules and aims of Freemasonry are available to the public. Meeting places are known and in many areas are used by the local community for activities other than Freemasonry. Members are encouraged to speak openly about Freemasonry.
Q What are the secrets of Freemasonry?
A The secrets in Freemasonry are the traditional modes of recognition which are not used indiscriminately, but solely as a test of membership, e.g. when visiting a Lodge where you are not known.
Q What happens at a lodge meeting?
A The meeting is in two parts. As in any association there is a certain amount of administrative procedure - minutes of last meeting, proposing and balloting for new members, discussing and voting on financial matters, election of officers, news and correspondence. Then there are the ceremonies for admitting new Masons and the annual installation of the Master and appointment of officers. The three ceremonies for admitting a new Mason are in two parts - a slight dramatic instruction in the principles and lessons taught in the Craft followed by a lecture in which the candidate's various duties are spelled out.
Q Why do Freemasons take oaths?
A New members make solemn promises concerning their conduct in Lodge and in society. Each member also promises to keep confidential the traditional methods of proving that he is a Freemason which he would use when visiting a lodge where he is not known. Freemasons do not swear allegiances to each other or to Freemasonry. Freemasons promise to support others in times of need, but only if that support does not conflict with their duties to God, the law, their family or with their responsibilities as a Citizen.
Q Why do your 'obligations' contain hideous penalties?
A They no longer do. When Masonic ritual was developing in the late 1600s and 1700s it was quite common for legal and civil oaths to include physical penalties and Freemasonry simply followed the practice of the times. In Freemasonry, however, the physical penalties were always symbolic and were never carried out. After long discussion, they were removed from the promises in 1986.

Freemasonry is based on the morels of the “Stone Masons “who build King Solomon’s temple.
The diffrent degrees are the diffrent payment levels(Understand?If not I will explain?)
No one knows how far back it goes but the records go back to 16’s so that is a fact.
Before that like you said we don’t know about.

Some say to progress beyond the third degree up towards the higher degrees, you have to be of a certain bloodline, passed on from father to son, if you're father was a high ranking mason you will be shown more of the secrets. This seems to be like a caste system based on genetics!
Those of the lower degrees will be looked down upon by the higher degrees.

Is this Avatar better? lol.
My best friend is a son of a high ranking mason (the son is called a "Lewis". A Lewis means the son of a mason)
He is a master mason and he is also in the mark degree, which you could call the fourth but I am going to join the fourth too, but its still no higher than a 3rd degree master mason.
The problem with the 33dg is that there are alot of degrees after the 3rd but they are all the same level but you can't be higher than a Master Mason.

Thank you for pointing that out for me. I am dyslexic, and sometimes do miss picking up on spellings, as they seem right to me. I used to take offence when people pointed these things out to me, but now tend accept that some people will pick on bad spelling and grammar, and use that as a legitimate argument in a debate. Oh well.
Outsiders will never understand freemasonry, as most of it is about friendship and brotherhood. Why all the paranoia? My brothers and I sometimes laugh about all these paranoid conspiracy theorists, when really, if most of you sat in on a meeting, you would be bored with all the formalities. It just seems to me that you are so commited to the idea of secrecy that you will not even accept the word of an actual mason. I accept that, as humans, it is impossible for us to know everything, and I hope I would not be accused of boasting such knowledge, but what I am telling you is that freemasonry is not hierarchical. After a certain level, there are indeed other facets, but all are on the same level - there is no hierarchical structure, and it is certainly farcical to suggest that any such hierarchy is genetically determined. As mention on a previous post, my friend is a lewis, and he does not have, nor should he have, any advantage in his masonic career, over myself.
I find it laughable that you would seriously think that I would be sent here, by some unknown agent, to try and delude you all. No, I watched a programme about David and thought that his ideas were very interesting, and wanted to come on this website to find out more. I had no idea that masonry and the "truth" were so incompatible. Masonry, as I have mentioned many times before, and no doubt will continue to do so, is about brotherhood, friendship, tradition. No one is trying to "control" anyone, in fact, I have never met two masons with the same opinions and beliefs. I have come to the conclusion, after being on this site for a while, that if one is determined to seek conspiracy and be paranoid, then you will see it in anything.
I did not write this initial post to put people off or to start arguments, but rather as a way to move on from this topic of masonry. I am interested in David and his ideas, and want to hear from you, and likewise, hope that you will listen to some of my ideas.

My grandfather RIP and my uncle were/are high ranking Freemasons who wanted me to join. I asked all about it and when they realised that i knew more about it than what they were letting on to me, they dropped the subject completely. I told them I had read Manly P Hall's books and had a personal insight to the building scam in this country, they soon realised that I was on to them.
My uncle in perticular has made millions through his Freemason connections, and thus had a vested interest in keeping me quiet with regards to the rest of the family. When my grandfather died, He had some of the most respected community and buisness leaders in the country at his funeral, thus confirming to me his importance in the organisation. My uncle married into one of the wealthiest families in Australia, with both Freemason and Mob connections, I saw first hand the power of these institutions and what they can do for you if your willing to sell your soul.
Honestly, I don't think your high enough up the food chain to see what it's all about. just my opinion.

You got that right.
Re: Freemasonry.
It's like going to church. Sure they're a lovely bunch of people who like to have a drink on the weekend and give to charity, but the point is they don't realise what they are worshipping. Freemasons are told to uphold societies morals without questioning society's morals, who defines them and what goes on behind closed doors.
It is a club designed to prevent critical thinking while at the same time reinforcing hte notion that everything is okay as long as people worship a deity and pay their taxes. It's sole purpose is to make you feel content that our leaders know best and would never deceive or manipulate the people.
Okay, that isn't it's sole purpose, it's other purpose is to screen the population for those with pyschopathic traits who can be groomed for positions of authority and power in society.
Criminal psychopaths are those who are crude enough in their manipulations to be identified and apprehended by legal and medical institutions. They are known as serial killers, con-artists, burglars, mobsters, mad tyrants, rapists, and delinquents. These comprise a small percentage of psychopaths, and only about 1% of the population.
The rest are successful psychopaths who evade detection by optimally conforming to social ideals without compromising their manipulative nature. They are skilled at faking emotions and passing themselves off as charming, caring, and sociable people. Some use their conformity to appear ordinary, others are more ambitious and become symbols of success by using their charm and intellect to rapidly climb the corporate, political, academic, religious, military, or social ladder. Between 20% and 50% of the population is included in this category.
http://www.montalk.net/
Freemasonry isn't the only organisation that does this. The most overt ones are political parties, corporations and the military. Any sort of ritualised behaviour programmes a persons subconscious mind to be rigid and tame, thus making them easier to guide whithout the person even realising that they are defining themselves and their abilities based on a limited set of chooices. The conditioned mind thinks that is free and thus won't even harbour the possibility that there is more to the official story than they are being told.
I have known masons and still know former masons and they all say the same thing as you. But they aren't running the show and neither are you. I have no problem with masons, each to their own.
Good luck with it.
I do think though that you aren't seeing the bigger picture, which is understandable as it is a big damn picture. You said that you watched a program about David Icke and found his ideas interesting. You may like to read his books (or watch his DVD's if your dyslexia slows you down too much.) and then you will understand why people here are hostile to freemasons. Personally I don't care if someone is a mason or not, I have never walked in your shoes.
The more diverse opinions here the better I say. Otherwise it just ends up a bunch of people all agreeing with each other and patting themselves on the back about how knowledgable and awake they are.
Cheers

A fact in 2007 must be a straight line or its not proof. you make no sense
So come on facts please.......................................?wait ing:confused:
Im getting the feeling that your not mentally stable mate, If you don't take what i say at face value then what can i say but live in your own bubble, you obviously enjoy it in there. To provide proof of the kind your asking would expose me and the people im talking about here which just happen to be family, which Im not willing to do. for you or anyone. Tell me facts man, How do you pull facts from situations that happened to you, do you keep a tape recorder handy for just such occasions, maybe have a stenographer walk around with you everywhere you go, just in case people like you want facts. UNBELIEVABLE

Yeah, you are. Moderating's subjective. My approach is to discourage getting personal, so others visiting the forum won't feel they will be attacked for presenting their ideas or feeling like they are asking dumb questions cos they don't know as much about this stuff as others.
Your right I probably stepped in too early. Also I did so before I realised it's not my forum to moderate.

I am glad you get something out of this.
I think that its a good thing to get thing down on paper/hard drive.
So we can all move on, even if we "Agree" to Disagree" then at least we have a fact.
I am not trying to change anyones mind you understand, more trying to get them to change mine.
I know that I can be one sided sometimes but I am open to proof.
But once again there are no real proof just hearsay and "Tree Facts" which could link anything if you try.
The thing I must say is that when someone' quotes
"they tried to get me to join" or "they asked me"
I can tell its not the hole truth by this sort of statement.
How I can tell?:Sorry I will keep to my self because its the only real way I can telll if someone is telling lies or the truth about this subject.

Well, oneofmany, here are my thoughts seen as you so kindly asked. I agree with tin and yourself (apart from wanting to knock out teeth). As I said in my first post, it's definetely full of psychopaths, the kind who hide their behaviour behind titles, jobs and institutions.
After re-reading your first post m3, I reckon you are either taking the piss or you are seriously deluded.
The main source of allegory was the Bible, the contents of which were known to everyone even if they could not read, and the only building described in detail in the Bible was King Solomon's Temple, which became the basis of the ritual.
It's entirely based around the bible, a religious text, but then...
Freemasonry is not a religion, nor is it a substitute for religion. It demands of its members a belief in a Supreme Being but provides no system of faith of its own.
Freemasonry is open to men of all religious faiths. The discussion of religion at its meetings is forbidden.
So it's main source of allegory is the bible, but it's not a religion although it "demands of it's members a belief in a Supreme Being.."
The Supreme Being
The names used for the Supreme Being enable men of different faiths to join in prayer (to God as each sees Him) without the terms of the prayer causing dissention among them.
It's not a religion, all the rituals and craft are based on the bible and King Solomons temple, members join in prayer to The Supreme Being...
There is no separate Masonic God; a Freemason's God remains the God of the religion he professes.
It's not a religion, it's based on the bible, you pray to a supreme being and mention a "Freemason's God" but not a Masonic God? Who is the supreme being then?
Freemasons meet in common respect for the Supreme Being, but He remains Supreme in their individual religions, and it is no part of Freemasonry to attempt to join religions together. There is therefore no composite Masonic God.
It's not a religion, it takes it's cue from the bible, you pray to a God...
Volume of the Sacred Law
The Bible, referred to by Freemasons as the Volume of the Sacred Law, is always open at every Masonic meeting.
But don't tell me... it's not a religion! I'm with you now..
The Obligations taken by Freemasons are sworn on or involve the Volume of the Sacred Law, or the book held sacred by those concerned. But it's not the same Sacred Law mentioned before as The Bible, referred to by Freemasons as the Volume of the Sacred Law
which is always open at every Masonic meeting.
because it's not a religion.
The physical penalties, which are purely symbolic, do not form part of an Obligation. The commitment to follow the principles of Freemasonry is, however, deep.
Deep commitment but it's not a brotherhood...
[B][U]Freemasonry Compared with Religion
Freemasonry lacks the basic elements of religion.
a) it has no theological doctrine, Like a bible and deep committment to pray to a supreme being. I get ya.
and by forbidding religious discussion but hang on..Volume of the Sacred Law
The Bible, referred to by Freemasons as the Volume of the Sacred Law, is always open at every Masonic meeting.

Q What happens at a lodge meeting?
If what you have written above is true, then they screw with your head.
I can't make up my mind whether your taking the piss or not. It sounds like you are, but it also sounds exactly like Illuminati methods of brainwashing. The whole thing is based around religious text and a supreme being but they tell you it's not religious. Mind control confusion. Who do you think you are worshipping? Satan, that's who.. or some dark evil God that's screwing with your sub conscious mind and you can't see it... or you're taking the piss... come on you can tell me, you know more than your letting on.
The Supreme Being
The names used for the Supreme Being enable men of different faiths to join in prayer (to God as each sees Him) without the terms of the prayer causing dissention among them.
There is no separate Masonic God; a Freemason's God remains the God of the religion he professes.
Freemasons meet in common respect for the Supreme Being, but He remains Supreme in their individual religions, and it is no part of Freemasonry to attempt to join religions together. There is therefore no composite Masonic God.
The whole thing is designed to suck your etheric energy. You probably aren't even aware that you are a supreme being, just like all of us, everyone... Don't bow down to a sick and twisted God or gods. They're sucking you dry and you don't realise it. Check out some info on the dna, vibrations and auras and be aware of yuour beautiful self.
Get out of there.

thanks for your reply and they are very good questions, I will try my best to answer them.
Q.It's entirely based around the bible, a religious text, but then...
A.No its based on the “Morals” of the builders of king Solomon’s temple
Q.So it's main source of allegory is the bible, but it's not a religion although it "demands of it's members a belief in a Supreme Being.."
A. Yes?! Don’t understand? You must have a god.
Q.It's not a religion, all the rituals and craft are based on the bible and King Solomon’s temple, members join in prayer to The Supreme Being...
A.No craft is not based on the bible and has nothing to do with “king Solomon” him self, its based on the “Morals” of the builders of king Solomon’s temple.
Members pray for them self like before Dinner nothing more.
Q.It's not a religion, it's based on the bible, you pray to a supreme being and mention a "Freemason's God" but not a Masonic God? Who is the supreme being then?
A. Freemasonry has no god, the “Supreme Being” is used as a name for all the gods as in your god to stop arguments.
Any religion is welcome but in Lodge you must call your god “Supreme Being”
Q.It's not a religion, it takes it's cue from the bible, you pray to a God...
A. Think I have answered this already.
Q.But don't tell me... it's not a religion! I'm with you now..
A. No way is it a religion.
Q.But it's not the same Sacred Law mentioned before as
A.The word “Sacred Law” another name for the/your holy book to stop arguments
Q.about the bible being open, because it's not a religion.
A there to remind us of our obligation, religion can not be spoken in Masonic Lodge.
Q.Like a bible and deep commitment to pray to a supreme being. I get ya
A. Explained this already
:D ROTFLMAO D To me! X

He's probably Masonic Light form ATS, an odious troll who once he gets enough cronies infesting a board, can actually use insults and mocking disbelief to discredit and embarrass people who post stuff about satanic abuse that they know about first hand...
I say we finish with this troll. Don't give him the chance to invite his mates.
It may not be a very tolerant attitude but this guy ain't playing by our rules...of reasonable honesty for example. That's why these guys are in charge, because they can lie and cheat. It gives them quite an advantage. He's not an honest mason (if there is such a thing), he's a disinfo pedlar... A real young mason would be in a state of total confusion about nearly everything (reprogramming) and wouldn't come anywhere near this place..I've met 'em, this guy doesn't fit.

Why must you have a god?
If it's not a religion, why do you have temples?
Why does Albert Pike, in his book "Morals and Dogma", Pike writes:
"Every Masonic lodge is a temple of religion; and its teachings are instruction in religion...Masonry, like all religions, all the Mysteries, Hermeticism and Alchemy, conceals its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses false explanations and misinterpretations of its symbols to mislead...to conceal the Truth, which it calls Light, from them, and to draw them away from it... The truth must be kept secret, and the masses need a teaching proportioned to their imperfect reason… every man's conception of God must be proportioned to his mental cultivation, and intellectual powers, and moral excellence. God is, as man conceives him, the reflected image of man himself."
He also says that the lower ranking Feemasons know not what is really going on:
"The Blue Degrees are but the outer court or portico of the Temple. Part of the symbols are displayed there to the Initiate, but he is intentionally misled by false interpretations. It is not intended that he shall understand them; but it is intended that he shall imagine he understands them. Their true explication is reserved for the Adepts, the Princes of Masonry... It is well enough for the mass of those called Masons, to imagine that all is contained in the Blue Degrees; and whoso attempts to undeceive them will labor in vain."
Would you say this describes your current condition?
How do you explain the massive difference between what you believe Freemasonry is, and what the renowned Albert Pike believed it meant?

Once again your not listening to what i said, What i was talking about was my personal experiences. NOTHING MORE. To show you proof of who my grandfather and my uncle are\were would expose my family. My uncle and other members of my family are freemasons but also happen to be public figures in Australia, so by telling you anything about them I expose them to the members of this forum who live in Australia, thus exposing who I am also, I think my family deserve annonimity dont you agree? The only hard proof of anyone in my family being a Freemason is the Rings that I have seen my Uncle wear and now 3 of my cousins, My grandfathers ring was given back after his death so solid evidence is at a premium im afraid.
Im not in possesion of any of my grandfathers belongings, but have seen photos of his initiation to grandmaster in the 80's and yes it said grandmaster ceremony under the photo. Also in the photo is the now Prime Minister of Australia, John Winston Howard who was an underling to my grandfather. My grandfather first joined the freemasons when he became a lewis in Glasgow when he was 21 and have also seen photos of that but once again these things are not in my possesion.
You can either take what i say at face value or you can dismiss it out of hand, the choice is yours. I can only tell you what i have seen and heard unfortunately, I would love to give you the proof you so desire so I could expose this sick society and shut you up once and for all but my Uncle, now knowing my ideology in this subject would rather burn the evidence rather than let me get my hands on it. so my hands are tied.

Good point about divulging secrets. My partners Dad showed me his apron, he only went to a few meetings, but he won't tell me what they did or show me the handshake. Every other mason I have met won't tell me a single thing, but they all say it's innocent fun, just a place to hang out. These are all lowly masons so they must really drive the "don't tell anyone our secrets" doctrine home. Just shows how well the symbols and protocols work on the sub conscious mind.
I have been reading up on Boaz. What has he got to do with this in their craft? One of my neighbours became a mason, I said Boaz to him and he smiled and said, "okay what do you know then" thinking I was a mason.
http://www.mystae.com/restricted/streams/scripts/pillars.html
http://www.aboutbibleprophecy.com/p153.htm
I would really like more info on what they do and who they refer to. I haven't read Pike's book. Most of this stuff I just had the intuition was dodgy and didn't bother going into the detail, but now I am really curious and much more aware of the way symbology affects us. In fact I think reality itself is a language, I want to learn it and the secret societies are trying to talk over the top of it, so as to drown out what 'reality' is saying to us. That might sound a bit confusing, I'll refine it later and post a thread on it.
Interestingly there is a town in the US called Boaz:
here is their Baptist church: http://www.boaz.net/photos/06-mar2.html
and their public library: http://www.boaz.net/photos/06-mar.html
Man, the library is more of a temple than the church!
Can anybody elaborate on Boaz and other aspects of the craft?

Good points hologram :D When the upload section is functional i will upload a recorded seminar that Manly P hall done about Freemasonry before he was killed off for exposing secrets. It's an old recording and gives you an insight into this organisation, it's practices and who they worship. Also I came across this website http://www.thehiddenrecords.com/index.htm when looking up something completely different and the information this guy came up with correlated to a masonic board that he came across, which blew my mind, because the info on this site is explosive for a heap of agendas, and I haven't heard anyone here mention Wayne Herschel before. Anyhow, the website is pretty big and i don't remember exactly where the board is in relation to the website, but it's there, and goes into their religious aspects. Worth a look in my opinion.

To masonic3,
This is my experience of the masons:-
I have a mate who joined them a few years back. A few months in he tried on a number of occasions to get me to join, at first it was subtle, then it got more obvious. I got very uncomfortable with this as he wasn't like this before (easy going, never tried to force opinions on individuals).
At this time I suddenly got a very bad feeling about the masons, it was a sick feeling in my stomach:eek: I took this as an extreme 'gut feeling' not to join up.
Then when Icke came along with his views on the masons, all became clear....
It is unfortunate, but my mate has changed since joining up, he has become more withdrawn.

If what m3 said goes on at meetings is true, then it's a perfect example of Illuminati procedures.
First -all the religious stuff; King Solomon's temple, bible open at every meeting, must believe in a deity to be a member, prayers before bedtime, etc. So they make sure everyone is a believer/follower/worshiper of some sort.
Second - they deny everything that is plainly obvious about the above. No, we are not a religion, blah, blah, blah. Typical Illuminati logic; deny what is in front of your eyes.
Third - the bible, the sacred law, is open at every meeting. Classic Illuminati mind control; a symbol of fear as the centrepiece of proceedings.
And this is just from what m3 has said. In what other ways do they twist logic and use symbols at the meetings?
They have the classic pyramid structure going on, with the bottom feeder masons like m3 and people like lightbeing's friend recruiting for them.
Thank you m3 for giving me the opportunity to see freemasonry with more clarity. Like lightbeing, I just had bad vibes from it and never really bothered to look into it, but just accepted that it was dodgy especially after reading Icke. Now I have a greater understanding of how freemasonry takes a hold of new members so quickly and why they are so keen to talk it up and promote it. I always wondered why that was when the masons I met told me meetings were rather ordinary and sometimes boring. Yet they kept going back!

If what m3 said goes on at meetings is true, then it's a perfect example of Illuminati procedures.
First -all the religious stuff; King Solomon's temple, bible open at every meeting, must believe in a deity to be a member, prayers before bedtime, etc. So they make sure everyone is a believer/follower/worshiper of some sort.
Second - they deny everything that is plainly obvious about the above. No, we are not a religion, blah, blah, blah. Typical Illuminati logic; deny what is in front of your eyes.
Third - the bible, the sacred law, is open at every meeting. Classic Illuminati mind control; a symbol of fear as the centrepiece of proceedings.
And this is just from what m3 has said. In what other ways do they twist logic and use symbols at the meetings?
They have the classic pyramid structure going on, with the bottom feeder masons like m3 and people like lightbeing's friend recruiting for them.

Ok I Give up, I was asked here to take you from the truth I don't care any more,
My real name is S. H M I am 48 years old.
That all I will say
I am from UGLE/s I am not saying any more than just read :
Q.It's entirely based around the bible, a religious text, but then...
yep alot of secrets are hidden bible meaning look into “Bible Code”
Q.So it's main source of allegory is the bible, but it's not a religion although it "demands of it's members a belief in a Supreme Being.."
Supreme being in after 15th orders is a man called:
Robert Reid (This man runs freemasonry)the funny thing is, he is from the USA.
I don't think you will find anything on him try and look into "Paul Reid" who was his in the job before him, they take the second name when taking this Oath The “Reid” is a blood line and its (not he its it) is above any degrees could say 34th . Degree or “Cosmo-politism”
The 33 degree Scottish rite is just a ritual but is pushed to throw off the “Goats”(we call you people the Goats). There are 33dg
I know of five orders in England which use the name “Illuminati” you must understand I have not been in any of these temples you must be a second generation “Lewis” or have the right to the 15Th Degree
We call them the “illuminated ones”
This goes deeper than I will ever know.
Please forgive and I may join this furom one day with my real ID
Thankyou

Yeah but you still didn't answer my questions, and I recall you saying very specifically that you would always be open and honest and answer all questions.
So, here goes the repost of my earlier thread:

A. Yes?! Don’t understand? You must have a god.
Q.It's not a religion, all the rituals and craft are based on the bible and King Solomon’s temple, members join in prayer to The Supreme Being...
A.No craft is not based on the bible and has nothing to do with “king Solomon” him self, its based on the “Morals” of the builders of king Solomon’s temple.
Members pray for them self like before Dinner nothing more.
Q.But don't tell me... it's not a religion! I'm with you now..
A. No way is it a religion.
Why must you have a god?
If it's not a religion, why do you have temples?
Why does Albert Pike, in his book "Morals and Dogma", Pike writes:
"Every Masonic lodge is a temple of religion; and its teachings are instruction in religion...Masonry, like all religions, all the Mysteries, Hermeticism and Alchemy, conceals its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses false explanations and misinterpretations of its symbols to mislead...to conceal the Truth, which it calls Light, from them, and to draw them away from it... The truth must be kept secret, and the masses need a teaching proportioned to their imperfect reason… every man's conception of God must be proportioned to his mental cultivation, and intellectual powers, and moral excellence. God is, as man conceives him, the reflected image of man himself."
He also says that the lower ranking Feemasons know not what is really going on:
"The Blue Degrees are but the outer court or portico of the Temple. Part of the symbols are displayed there to the Initiate, but he is intentionally misled by false interpretations. It is not intended that he shall understand them; but it is intended that he shall imagine he understands them. Their true explication is reserved for the Adepts, the Princes of Masonry... It is well enough for the mass of those called Masons, to imagine that all is contained in the Blue Degrees; and whoso attempts to undeceive them will labor in vain."
Would you say this describes your current condition?
How do you explain the massive difference between what you believe Freemasonry is, and what the renowned Albert Pike believed it meant?

In regards to post #47 where I mentioned Boaz;
I read the book of Ruth in the old testament and it appears it is a bloodline thing (gee, that surprised me...). Boaz is the great grandfather of David "Israel's greatest king".
I wonder if the bottom feeder masons are represented by Boaz and can strive to be closer to King David, ie; if you're ruthless enough you can get closer to the mason's supreme being, the reptillian god.
If I'm not mistaken Boaz is also the name of one of the pillars that supports King Solomon's temple. http://www.mystae.com/restricted/streams/scripts/pillars.html
In other words, the bottom feeder masons are the support base for the top of the pyramid grand poobah.
Can anyone elaborate on the Boaz thing? I'm wondering if I am on the right path with my thought's here. As I said earlier, I previouosly judged masonry by the vibes I had and never looked at the details. I spose I'll go and read up on Solomon's temple.

The thing I must say is that when someone' quotes
"they tried to get me to join" or "they asked me"
I can tell its not the hole truth by this sort of statement.
How I can tell?:Sorry I will keep to my self because its the only real way I can telll if someone is telling lies or the truth about this subject.
Let me go into a bit more detail about how i was approached, because I know what you are referring to by these comments. The first time I brought up the Freemasons to my grandfather, I was just after general information about how it all worked and what it was all about, as it was at a Christmas party, it was all general conversation. and at no time did I approach my grandfather about joining. The next time we met, He thought that my general inquiry at the Christmas party was more than it was and he casually said to me "were you asking to join" and my reply was that I already knew what the Freemasons were all about and that nothing was furtherest from my mind. Right there I knew that my grandfather had made a mistake, by approaching me the way he did as I know for a fact that you have to ask them to join. From there I told him what I knew and he never once denied any of what I said, but neither did he confirm it. I was not looked on as a nut, and the matter was dropped after he knew that I knew.
I hope this answer satisfies you that i am not lying about the matter.

There are that I know of 33 degrees then after its the "Reid" the Reid is higher than any degree the "Reid only answers to the "Council of 9" No one I know as seen anything of the council of 9, all that I know is that the "9" is always writen with the number and not like this "Nine"? I don't know why?
I am at the 23 Degree and I can't get any higher as I do not have the right blood line.
The 33 degrees are all over the bible some say the bible was changed by the first "Reid" to hide the truth, I don't want to repeat my self but you need to look into bible code thats the answers you have been looking for.
Look for time of death of Jesus who was there? The "Reid"? thats all I will say.
illuminated ones
I can not become this level as I do not have the right blood line but I know many and "Blair" is on there members lists I have seen it.
the illuminated ones are very close to the "Reid" so they must be close to the "c of 9".? no more info?

To be honest, he carried around a lot of Scottish bullshit, that I found just wrong to me, I mean after 50 years of living in Australia, he still cultivated a Scottish accent while my mother has been living here for the same amount of time, and you could hardly tell where she came from. All the Scottish societies and pipe bands he belonged to gave me the feeling that he never wanted to be in my country, so why would I have wanted to be a part of his secular life, if you know what i mean. I still have the problem of you knowing exactly who my other living family members are by knowing who my grandfather is, as I say, my uncle has made a lot of money through the connections he has made through Freemasonry, and I wouldn't want to out him so to speak. His family (the one he married into) don't look too kindly on these sorts of things, they pay people to look after their privacy. I believe he would find out If somebody went snooping for Information on our Family, and the first person he'd ask is me.
I would personally love to find out how far down the rabbit hole my grandfather went down, but for the rest of the family's privacy, I have to say no.

Masonic3 has obviously taken objection to a little bit of advice I offered him in a PM last week after one of his reported posts. Instead of replying to me personally, he decided to make public his views on what he thought of my advice. What a pity he decided on this course of action.
Please note it was due to an insulting signiture at the bottom of his posts today (about myself), that prompted FA tonto to give him points. M3 then became abusive and threatening in PMs to tonto, so the moderators on duty at that time made the decision to ban him for 10 days I was not online at that time.

The ultimate masonic secret is that you're not supposed to join in the first place.

Once you're in how do you get out? Are you free to walk away and leave at any time?

If you look carefully in the original photo the 'Icke' is looking straight at the camera, in M3's piece of troll work he is in slight profile and the back of his head looks pixelated..
How long before this troll is banned Mods?

I have theory in regard to what encourages men to join freemasonry
My theory is that they suffer from premature ejaculation or sexual dysfunction and therefore, not being able to satisfy their mate feel inferior.
Joining a "secret" group appeals, particularly when it is a group that promotes their members to be superior above the general populace. They try to create a feeling of dignity and superiority above others to offset their feelings of worthlessness and inferiority in the sack.
judging by the "superoir" views displayed in the freemasonry threads on this forum, maybe this is the case here?

:eek: Freemasonary in England today
I have decided to write this thread and put some of the “myths” to rights on this forum, as a lot of members think they know “facts.” In reality, what you are about to read is “fact.”
This is fact because I say it is, as I am a Freemason in England today.
How it began in England:)
It is not known. The earliest recorded 'making' of a Freemason in England is that of Elias Ashmole in 1646. Organised Freemasonry began with the founding of the Grand Lodge of England on 24 June 1717, the first Grand Lodge in the world. Ireland followed in 1725 and Scotland in 1736. All the regular Grand Lodges in the world trace themselves back to one or more of the Grand Lodges in the British Isles. There are two main theories of origin. According to one, the operative stonemasons who built the great cathedrals and castles had lodges in which they discussed trade affairs. They had simple initiation ceremonies and, as there were no City and Guilds certificates, dues cards or trade union membership cards, they adopted secret signs and words to demonstrate that they were trained masons when they moved from site to site. In the 1600s, these operative lodges began to accept non-operatives as "gentlemen masons". Gradually this non-operative took over the lodges and turned them from operative to 'free and accepted' or 'speculative' lodges. The other theory is that in the late 1500s and early 1600s, there was a group which was interested in the promotion of religious and political tolerance in an age of great intolerance when differences of opinion on matters of religion and politics were to lead to bloody civil war. In forming Freemasonry, they were trying to make better men and build a better world. As the means of teaching in those days was by allegory and symbolism, they took the idea of building as the central allegory on which to form their system. The main source of allegory was the Bible, the contents of which were known to everyone even if they could not read, and the only building described in detail in the Bible was King Solomon's Temple, which became the basis of the ritual. The old trade guilds provided them with their basis administration of a Master, Wardens, Treasurer and Secretary, and the operative mason's tools provided them with a wealth of symbols with which to illustrate the moral teachings of Freemasonry.
Freemasonry in England
All lodges in England are under the “United Grand Lodge of England” UGLE for short.
All lodges under the UGLE are issued with a warrant (This is proof that they follow the rules of UGLE) I can only visit lodges with this warrant, but lucky for me all Lodges in England are under the UGLE. And have this warrant.
Lodges outside of England
I can only visit lodges that are recognised by the UGLE, so I would have to check through my Lodge, a lot of Masonic groups in the USA are not under the UGLE so I could not visit them nor would I want to
The United Grand Lodge of England has 730 Lodges operating in a number of countries around the world.
Many of these Lodges are overseen by a District Grand Lodge, of which there are 32. Five groups of Lodges are too small to make up a District and are therefore overseen by a Grand Inspector. Twelve individual Lodges do not come under the jurisdiction of a District or Grand Inspector and are known as NUD Lodges.
Lodges in the USA:mad: :rolleyes:
A lot of Masonic groups in the USA are not under the UGLE so I could not visit them nor would I want to.
Freemasonry in the USA is a shambles and a lot of there Masonic groups are fake, they are made up, as anyone can say they are the head of an Masonic order.
You could start one “David’s Masonic Knights” but it would not be under the UGLE.
Overall the UGLE
Under the United Grand Lodge of England, there are 330,000 Freemasons, meeting in 8,644 lodges. There are separate Grand Lodges for Ireland (which covers north and south) and Scotland, with a combined membership of 150,000. Worldwide, there are probably 5 million members.
Are there 33 Degrees
The simple answer is no!:eek: :mad: :confused:
Freemasonry consists of the three 'Craft' degrees (Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft and Master Mason) completed by the Royal Arch degree (Chapter). There are many other Masonic degrees and Orders which are called 'additional' because they add to the basis of the Craft and Royal Arch. They are not basic to Freemasonry but add to it by further expounding and illustrating the principles stated in the Craft and Royal Arch. Some of these additional degrees are numerically superior to the third degree but this does not affect the fact that they are additional to and not in anyway superior to or higher than the Craft. The ranks that these additional degrees carry have no standing with the Craft or Royal Arch.
The 33 degree Scottish rite :rolleyes:
The local Scottish rite organization confers the 4th through 32nd degrees in degree-conferring meetings. The Scottish rite is sometimes called the "College of Freemasonry," because it uses extensive allegory and drama to emphasize the message of its degrees. The degree work may, but not necessarily, be completed at one time.
The Scottish Rite shares the belief of all Masonic organizations that there is no higher degree than that of Master Mason. The degrees are in addition to, and in no way "higher" than, those of Blue Lodge, or Craft Lodge, Masonry. Scottish Rite degrees simply amplify and elaborate on the lessons of the craft, providing further knowledge of Masonry, the building of the Temple, and ancient religions, with memorable lessons ranging from the days of chivalry to modern times.
The Scottish Rite in the name of a ritual, my lodge uses the ritual called “Commonsense”
The Knights Templar ;) :rolleyes:
The templar are real I know some and will be one in the future, they use my lodge.
To become a KT you must be a Master mason and have also the right to read Mark and Chapter degrees.
Then if you are lucky you will be asked to join…………..
Freemasonry and Religion
Freemasonry is not a religion, nor is it a substitute for religion. It demands of its members a belief in a Supreme Being but provides no system of faith of its own.
Freemasonry is open to men of all religious faiths. The discussion of religion at its meetings is forbidden.
The Supreme Being
The names used for the Supreme Being enable men of different faiths to join in prayer (to God as each sees Him) without the terms of the prayer causing dissention among them.
There is no separate Masonic God; a Freemason's God remains the God of the religion he professes.
Freemasons meet in common respect for the Supreme Being, but He remains Supreme in their individual religions, and it is no part of Freemasonry to attempt to join religions together. There is therefore no composite Masonic God.
Volume of the Sacred Law
The Bible, referred to by Freemasons as the Volume of the Sacred Law, is always open at every Masonic meeting.
The Obligation of Freemasonry
The Obligations taken by Freemasons are sworn on or involve the Volume of the Sacred Law, or the book held sacred by those concerned. They are undertakings to help keep secret a Freemason's means of recognition, and to follow the principles of Freemasonry.
The physical penalties, which are purely symbolic, do not form part of an Obligation. The commitment to follow the principles of Freemasonry is, however, deep.
Freemasonry Compared with Religion
Freemasonry lacks the basic elements of religion.
a) it has no theological doctrine, and by forbidding religious discussion at its meetings will not allow a Masonic theological doctrine to develop.
b) It offers no sacraments.
c) It does not claim to lead to salvation by works, by secret knowledge or by any other means. The secrets of Freemasonry are concerned with modes of recognition and not with salvation.
Freemasonry Supports Religion
Freemasonry is far from indifferent to religion. Without interfering in religious practice it expects each member to follow his own faith, and to place above all other duties his duty to God, by whatever name He is known. Its moral teachings are acceptable to all religions.
Freemasonry is thus a supporter of religion.
Freemasonry: Your Questions Answered
Q Why are you a secret society?
A We are not, but lodge meetings, like those of many other groups, are private and open only to members. The rules and aims of Freemasonry are available to the public. Meeting places are known and in many areas are used by the local community for activities other than Freemasonry. Members are encouraged to speak openly about Freemasonry.
Q What are the secrets of Freemasonry?
A The secrets in Freemasonry are the traditional modes of recognition which are not used indiscriminately, but solely as a test of membership, e.g. when visiting a Lodge where you are not known.
Q What happens at a lodge meeting?
A The meeting is in two parts. As in any association there is a certain amount of administrative procedure - minutes of last meeting, proposing and balloting for new members, discussing and voting on financial matters, election of officers, news and correspondence. Then there are the ceremonies for admitting new Masons and the annual installation of the Master and appointment of officers. The three ceremonies for admitting a new Mason are in two parts - a slight dramatic instruction in the principles and lessons taught in the Craft followed by a lecture in which the candidate's various duties are spelled out.
Q Why do Freemasons take oaths?
A New members make solemn promises concerning their conduct in Lodge and in society. Each member also promises to keep confidential the traditional methods of proving that he is a Freemason which he would use when visiting a lodge where he is not known. Freemasons do not swear allegiances to each other or to Freemasonry. Freemasons promise to support others in times of need, but only if that support does not conflict with their duties to God, the law, their family or with their responsibilities as a Citizen.
Q Why do your 'obligations' contain hideous penalties?
A They no longer do. When Masonic ritual was developing in the late 1600s and 1700s it was quite common for legal and civil oaths to include physical penalties and Freemasonry simply followed the practice of the times. In Freemasonry, however, the physical penalties were always symbolic and were never carried out. After long discussion, they were removed from the promises in 1986.
Heeeeeyyyy, Maybe you can help me out! I'm looking for a good reference pic of Jabulon. I know, I know, it's not your god, whatever, don't care. I just need it for reference for some art. I'd much appreciate it if you could. The representation I'm looking for is the three headed crab (I believe) with the Kings head, Cat head, and Spiderhead. You would be doing me a big favor if you could scrounge that up for me post haste.

Masonry was wiped out virtually over all of Europe during the 100 years war, the Age of Imperialism, and both World Wars, thus wiping out good Masonic Orders is exactly why these wars began in the first place. During the 400 year period the takeover of the Masonic orders by rich aristocrats began in Europe, while others fled from nobility. The period begins with the 1500s are ends around 1959, the next phase of attack is depopulation and a constant concerted all out attack on governments and country's sovereignty around the world.
I forgot to add the Revolutions and Napoleonic Wars. Just how man real Freemasons died in those bloodlettings?

I believe the Templars laid the foundations for modern masonry, with their death worship and psychological games learned from the assassins in order to induce absolute schizoid obedience, I hardly think 'good' comes into it...
They believe the ends justifies the means.... whatever the cost... conscience and goodness isn't part of world economic control...
