Who all here is a Freemason?

[Baron Samedi]

I'm interested in becoming a Mason, and I was wondering if any of you fine souls are currently Masons?

[Groenewolf]

No, I am not a Freemason. But why do you want to join them?

[Lady L]

Whats a freemason ...?

It is an allmen semi-secret society. Devided in Lodges and they have three ranks of intiation. And there are plenty of conspiracy-theories revoling around them.

I've considered joining a fraternity in the past, but unfortunately no atheists are allowed to become Freemasons. You have to be religious.

Paradigm-shift whence in lodge....

Do you really think I am a monotheist?

I want to join in order to learn about a very interesting sect of people.

Plus, the charity work would be very fulfilling to me.

You have to be religious.

From what I heard you have to be theist. But nessarly by practicing a certain religion.

Indeed. But an atheist is not a theist. What do they have against atheists? I honestly don't know.

Those that cannot give credence to a God must be irreligious libertines, and thus have no true sense of right or wrong.

I think the religious requirement is so their members can infiltrate the churches & destroy them from within. Like the Episcopal/Anglican Communion, the Methodists, The Presbyterian, the various reform churches that makeup the United Church of Christ & on & on...

You don't have to be a Christian (in name only). They allow Unitarians. I'm sure there Islamic lodges.

As for conspiracies, it is hard to ignore the fact that Masons played an important role in planning & executing the American Revolution. The signers of the Declaration of Independence is a who's who of 18th century American masonry. Am I wrong in assuming the main participators of the French Revolution were also Masons?
