My grandpa is a freemason. He is a priest, or master of spells, or something silly like that.

thats actually not at all true, but many have been masons


they seem to have come from the knights templar, and worshipped Soloman's Temple, namely Issac Newtons great depiction of its exact demensions which newton used to predict the future (correctly)

the masons have many rituals which's meaning is unknown to all (save for unknown mason elites) masons for hundreds of years.

yes it is man.....check it. Plus there are two traditions, one in which you can become a knight templar ( the york right), and the other one where you can become leader of the masons ( scotish right).

Oh this is all absurd. There is no magic fraterinty that controls all business or government. There is are no mystic abilities, it is but farce. The Skulls, The Masons, and the rest of the elite clubs in the world are simply friendship to extreem.

Wrong. They are about connections and networking. Similar to Rotary or Elks, just more ritual bullshit.

its strange that this forum came up at the time that it did, because i was driving thru hamilton the other day and i saw a massive church-looking building fenced in, with a giant sign near the gate saying "the scottish free masons society", and i had nooooooooo fucking clue what it was, and now i do.

Theres two masonic temples in my city. One is super huge and nice and the other isn't much more than a doublewide. My dad has some friends that are masons. In its lower levels its just a club like other people have said. If you believe the conspiracy theorists at the higher levels they pretty much control the world.

my dads in it, im catholic but yea hes in it. i think its like a society that tries to make the world better and believes that everyone should believe in one god not multiple gods or something.
i just went to some camp in elizabethtown run by the masons and what their sole purpose is, is to try to be a good person and lead by example and hope somebody will follow what they do
