Freemasonry, the teachings and practices of the fraternal (men-only) order of Free and Accepted Masons, the largest worldwide secret society—an oath-bound society, often devoted to fellowship, moral discipline, and mutual assistance, that conceals at least some of its rituals, customs, or activities from the public (secret societies do not necessarily conceal their membership or existence). Spread by the advance of the British Empire, Freemasonry remains most popular in the British Isles and in other countries originally within the empire.

Spread by the advance of the British Empire, Freemasonry remains most popular in the British Isles and in other countries originally within the empire.

The origin of Freemasonry is still perceived as a tangled web of mystery and opacity, due partly to the institution's use of ancient legendary history in its rituals and ceremonies, and to the loss of the early records of Masonic meetings, many of which may have been destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666.

It has been proposed that the order has roots in the Druids, Gnostics, Egyptian pharaohs, the mysteries of Isis and Osiris, Phoenicians, Dionysiac Artificers, Vedic Aryans, Zoroastrians, Rosicrucians, the Jewish Qabbalah, Hermeticism, Essenes, or the Crusades.

Freemasons are linked to numerous other rites, degrees, and orders collectively termed Masonic. Originally two words, Free Mason, the compound Freemason became standard by the nineteenth century. The term stands for "free and accepted mason," an accepted or "honorary" mason who is both freeborn (not bonded in servitude) and "free" from the original "operative" definition of masonry, the trade of stonecraft used to build churches and cathedrals throughout medieval Europe.


In most traditions, the applicant for admission is required to be an adult male, and all applicants must also believe in the existence of a Supreme Being and in the immortality of the soul. In practice, some lodges have been charged with prejudice against Jews, Catholics, and nonwhites. Generally, Freemasonry in Latin countries has attracted those who question religious dogma or who oppose the clergy (see anticlericalism), whereas in the Anglo-Saxon countries the membership is drawn largely from among white Protestants. The modern French tradition, founded in the 19th century and known as Co-Freemasonry or Le Droit Humain, admits both women and men.

Although 1915 Klan organizer Colonel William Joseph Simmons was a freemason, he was also a member of the Knights of Pythias, the Odd Fellows, and eight other lodges. He is memorialized

Albert Pike has often been named as influential in the early Ku Klux Klan, being named in 1905 as "the chief judicial officer" of the Klan by a sympathetic historian of the early Klan, Walter Fleming. He was cited as the leader of the Arkansas Ku Klux Klan.

====Mormon Church====
The relationship between Mormonism and Freemasonry began early in the life of Joseph Smith, founder of the Latter Day Saint movement. Smith's older brother, Hyrum, and possibly his father, Joseph, Sr. were Freemasons while the family lived near Palmyra, New York. In the late 1820s, the western New York region was swept with anti-Masonic fervor.

Nevertheless, by the 1840s, Smith and several prominent Latter Day Saints had become Freemasons and joined the Masonic Lodge in Nauvoo, Illinois. Soon after joining Freemasonry, Smith introduced the temple endowment ceremony including a number of symbolic elements that were very similar to those in Freemasonry. Smith remained a Freemason until his death; however, later leaders in the movement have distanced themselves from Freemasonry. In modern times, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) has clarified in its Now You Know series that its members may become Freemasons.

====Seventh-day Adventist Church====

Some critics claim that the founders of Seventh-day Adventistim were Freemasons. They base this claim on what they believe to be the following evidence:

# William Miller, founder of Adventism, was a Free Mason;
# pictures of early Seventh-day Adventist leaders with the hidden hand or hand-in-jacket pose, which they say is a Masonic sign
# Ellen White’s use of phrases that can be found in Masonic literature
# Masonic logo used at Ellen White’s funeral
# The 1874 “Way of Life” lithograph, which contains an all-seeing-eye;
# James and Ellen White’s tombstones with the Masonic Egyptian obelisk.

====Jehovah Witnesses====
It's been said the Jehovah Witnesses [JW] are a demonic cult, founded by the false prophet Charles Taze Russell in 1874. Russell was a 33rd degree Freemason, a Satanic organization within an organization that founded many of today's mainstream false religions that masquerade as being Christian.

Freemasons

 

Freemasonry, the teachings and practices of the fraternal (men-only) order of Free and Accepted Masons, the largest worldwide secret society—an oath-bound society, often devoted to fellowship, moral discipline, and mutual assistance, that conceals at least some of its rituals, customs, or activities from the public (secret societies do not necessarily conceal their membership or existence). Spread by the advance of the British Empire, Freemasonry remains most popular in the British Isles and in other countries originally within the empire.

The origin of Freemasonry is still perceived as a tangled web of mystery and opacity, due partly to the institution's use of ancient legendary history in its rituals and ceremonies, and to the loss of the early records of Masonic meetings, many of which may have been destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666.

It has been proposed that the order has roots in the Druids, Gnostics, Egyptian pharaohs, the mysteries of Isis and Osiris, Phoenicians, Dionysiac Artificers, Vedic Aryans, Zoroastrians, Rosicrucians, the Jewish Qabbalah, Hermeticism, Essenes, or the Crusades.

Freemasons are linked to numerous other rites, degrees, and orders collectively termed Masonic. Originally two words, Free Mason, the compound Freemason became standard by the nineteenth century. The term stands for "free and accepted mason," an accepted or "honorary" mason who is both freeborn (not bonded in servitude) and "free" from the original "operative" definition of masonry, the trade of stonecraft used to build churches and cathedrals throughout medieval Europe.

In most traditions, the applicant for admission is required to be an adult male, and all applicants must also believe in the existence of a Supreme Being and in the immortality of the soul. In practice, some lodges have been charged with prejudice against Jews, Catholics, and nonwhites. Generally, Freemasonry in Latin countries has attracted those who question religious dogma or who oppose the clergy (see anticlericalism), whereas in the Anglo-Saxon countries the membership is drawn largely from among white Protestants. The modern French tradition, founded in the 19th century and known as Co-Freemasonry or Le Droit Humain, admits both women and men.

Freemason secrets allegedly lurk behind everything from the planning of our nation’s capital to murder. Members of the enigmatic Masonic brotherhood include prominent politicians, Founding Fathers and titans of business. In modern times, Masons are known for donating millions to charity. But who are the Freemasons and what do they stand for? Is there really a secret Freemason handshake?

Freemasons are the workhorse of the New World Order, having infiltrated America's churches. Freemasons were instrumental in the creation of Communism, putting the lies of evolution into public schools, promoting the feminist and homosexual agendas, and producing a series of corrupt Bibles. Freemasonry seems to be involved in everything that is unholy, corrupt and destructive to America. Their goal is globalization.

Things you may not know about Freemasons

 
Morals and Dogma by Albert Pike: Kabalah Masonic Symbols
  1. The Freemasons Are the Oldest Fraternal Organization in the World.
  2. Freemason Symbols Aren’t What You Think - The “All-Seeing Eye,” or Eye of Providence, while not designed by Masons, has been used by the group to represent the omniscience of God. The most well-known Freemason symbol, “The Square and Compasses,” depicts a builder’s square joined by a compass. The “G” at its center remains subject to dispute; some experts at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, believe the “G” in the symbol’s center represents geometry, a critical field to the first Freemasons, while others believe it represents God, the “Grand Architect of the Universe.” The Square and Compasses remains a popular symbol on Masonic rings.
  3. Freemasons greet one another with a variety of handshakes, all based on one’s rank within the organization. “There is a handshake for each degree: Apprentice, Fellowcraft, and Master, i.e., the first three degrees and also in the higher degrees,” says Révauger. “Each rite has its own handshakes, so there is quite a variety. They are used during Masonic ceremonies.”
  4. The Catholic Church Forbids Members from Being Freemasons. The Catholic Church first condemned Freemasonry in 1738, prompted by concern over Masonic temples and the secret rituals performed within them. In the 19th century, the Vatican even called the Masons "the Synagogue of Satan." In 1983, declaring: “Their principles have always been considered irreconcilable with the doctrine of the Church and therefore membership in them remains forbidden. The faithful who enroll in Masonic associations are in a state of grave sin and may not receive Holy Communion."
  5. Freemasons Inspired America’s First Political Third Party. In the realm of politics, the first third party in the United States, the Anti-Masonic Party, formed in 1828 in response to fears that the group was growing too secretive and powerful. Many of its members touted conspiracy theories about the Freemasons, with some leaders claiming that an infamous murder of the time had occurred at the hands of the Masons, in an effort to keep the victim from revealing the organization’s secrets.
  6. Traditionally, Freemason membership has only been open to men. In the group’s “1723 Constitutions,” a kind of guidebook to the organization by James Anderson, written under the aegis of the Grand Lodge of England, women and atheists were excluded along with enslaved people. Now, “masons come from all walks of life, provided they can afford to pay the annual subscription,” says Révauger. But while women are allowed to join an affiliated organization called The Order of the Eastern Star, and some lodges recognize female members, “freemasonry is not as universal as it claims, since in many countries…women and atheists are still excluded.” In the U.S. and Europe, it can vary city to city, lodge to lodge. Freemasonry remains segregated,” says Jacob. “In the United States, several Grand Lodges still refuse to recognize Prince Hall Freemasonry, i.e., African American Masons,”
  7. Famous Freemasons can be found (installed) throughout history: George Washington was a Master Mason, and Benjamin Franklin was a founding member of the first Masonic Lodge in America. Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Gerald Ford were Masons, as was Prime Minister of Great Britain Winston Churchill. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Davy Crockett, Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole, Henry Ford, Paul Robeson and astronaut Buzz Aldrin were also Freemasons.

Freemasons and the church

Catholic Church

Freemasonry has, almost from its inception, encountered considerable opposition from organized religion, especially from the Roman Catholic Church, and from various states.

Clement XII, (born April 7, 1652, Florence—died Feb. 6, 1740, Rome), pope from 1730 to 1740. A member of the influential Florentine princely family of Corsini, he became papal ambassador to Vienna in 1691, cardinal deacon in 1706, and pope on July 12, 1730.

On April 28, 1738, Clement promulgated his bull In Eminenti, which condemned Freemasonry, the beliefs and observances of which were considered pagan and unlawful. The Masons were often hostile to the church, and Clement threatened to excommunicate any Catholic who joined. Clement commented on the secrecy of Masonic lodges and the “host of grievous punishment” received when violating the oath of secrecy. The bull did not delve into many specific objections to Masonic practices but concluded, based on “certain knowledge and mature deliberations,” that “all prudent and upright men have passed the same judgment on them as being depraved and perverted.” [2]

Note: They might have banned Freemasons, however, the Catholics did hand the keys of the church over to the Jesuits around the time of the Council of Trent, in the 1540's.

Mormon Church

The relationship between Mormonism and Freemasonry began early in the life of Joseph Smith, founder of the Latter Day Saint movement. Smith's older brother, Hyrum, and possibly his father, Joseph, Sr. were Freemasons while the family lived near Palmyra, New York.

Some critics claim that the founders of Seventh-day Adventistim were Freemasons. They base this claim on what they believe to be the following evidence:

  1. William Miller, founder of Adventism, was a Free Mason;
  2. pictures of early Seventh-day Adventist leaders with the hidden hand or hand-in-jacket pose, which they say is a Masonic sign
  3. Ellen White’s use of phrases that can be found in Masonic literature
  4. Masonic logo used at Ellen White’s funeral
  5. The 1874 “Way of Life” lithograph, which contains an all-seeing-eye;
  6. James and Ellen White’s tombstones with the Masonic Egyptian obelisk.

Jehovah Witnesses

It's been said the Jehovah Witnesses [JW] are a demonic cult, founded by the false prophet Charles Taze Russell in 1874. Russell was a 33rd degree Freemason, a Satanic organization within an organization that founded many of today's mainstream false religions that masquerade as being Christian.

Freemasons and worship of Lucifer

 
"the Lost Keys of the Mason"

According to Manly P. Hall in his book "the Lost Keys of the Mason"; When the Mason learns that the key to the warrior on the block is the proper application of the dynamo of living power, he has learned the mystery of his Craft. The seething, surging energies of Lucifer are in his hands and before he may step onward and upward he must prove his ability to properly apply energy. [3]

Freemasons in Space

 

Freemasons have always been in the forefront of the scientific community; from the founding of the British Royal Society to today’s NASA program in the United States. Sadly, freemasonry is a secret society having an oath to uphold that prevents them from telling the truth under penalty of death; isn't it nice to know that people who swore to keep secrets happen to be in the highest places in the field of politicians, science, and religion.

The following is a short and incomplete list of Freemasons who have been a part of the exploration of outer space (hoax).
