The era of the free-masons.
Between 1937 and 1958, an amazing succession of publicly Masonic Supreme Court justices were appointed to the Supreme Court. Collectively, they radicalized American politics. Since their ascension, it can truly be said that every major socio-political change in America has been brought about by judicial, rather than legislative, means. They utterly dominated the Supreme Court during the Warren, Stone, and Vinson courts (1941-1969.) At times, as many as eight of the nine justice were Masonic.
The following is a listing of Masonic US Supreme Court justices appointed in the last 70 years. This is no conspiracy theory; all were very publicly Masonic. Allegations of covert Masonry (such as Ronald Reagan and Dwight Eisenhower) have been rejected for the purposes of this list.
Hugo Black (1937-1971)
S. F. Reed (1938-1957)
William Douglas (1939-1975)
Robert Jackson (1941-1954)
James Byrnes (1941-1942)
Wiley Rutledge (1943-1949)
Harold Burton (1945-1958)
Fred Vinson (1946-1953)
Tom C. Clark (1949-1967)
Sherman Minton (1949-1956)
Earl Warren (1953-1969)
John Marshall Harlan (1955-1971)
Potter Stewart (1958-1981)
Also, Thurgood Marshall (1968-1991) was a freemason.
Today, there are five (okay, four and a quarter) conservatives on the United States Supreme Court. Is it a coincidence that they are also the five members who cannot be freemasons?
Freemasons generally disdain Catholics, and Catholics may even incur excommunication by becoming Freemasons; all five are Catholic: Clarence Thomas, John Roberts, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, and Sam Alito. (Ruth Bader Ginsburg is not likely a freemason, nor is there credible evidence linking the other liberals to masonry.)
Unlike Roosevelt, Truman, and Johnson, John Kennedy was also not masonic. His appointments, Abe Fortas (1962-1965), and Byron White (1962-1993) were the only non-radical-leftists for several years on the court. Nixon, a Quaker, was also non-Masonic; Burger, while still liberal, was decidedly more moderate than his colleagues. Rehnquist was decidedly conservative. Unfortunately, the Senate blocked further conservatives, resulting in the selection of Lewis Powell, Jr.
Gerald Ford was a Freemason, and his selection, John Paul Stevens, while not publicly Masonic, continued the radical policies of prior freemasons. Was Stevens simply covertly Masonic? Sources alleging he was are not reliable, but his ties are definite.

(Clarence Thomas was not Catholic when he was appointed, but was Catholic previously and is currently Catholic.) All four solidly conservative justices have been linked to an anti-Masonic, Catholic group.
She has certainly earned a list of such.
Ok. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me again.
Your LIE about the Knights Templar committing war crimes has already been refuted by me and the true history indicated yet here you go and lie again.
Thanks. I have never seen any reference to him being one but with the huge majority of our Founders being in a lodge it is hard to believe he was not. Particularly since he was practically the son Washington never had.
I was just being a wiseass. On a thread like this I can't help myself.
When will the diatribes against the Federal Reserve start they can't be far behind in this parade of lunacy.
Oh, for crying out loud!
I wasn't repeating the assertion; I was clarifying that the accusations made against them had been unjust, and acknowledging that I had previously been unclear!
If you believe 208 was clear you need to think again.
However, I am happy to see that you admit your prior post was WRONG.
It's probably been said before... but you sir are full of baloney. The Masonic Lodge does not recruit.
I watched the Thomas confirmation hearing and screamed at the T.V.! :-)
Exactly!

Thanks for the link. :-)
There isn't even anything in the original court records ( and yes, they did keep records and I've read some of them ) about "war crimes". YOU MADE THAT UP, JUST AS YOU MADE UP THE TINFOIL COVERED/BLACK HELICOPTER GARBAGE USED TO HEAD THIS THREAD.
You also claimed that there were NO Masonic major players, in America, from Washington until FDR.
Then, there is your claim that FDR did what he did, because he was a Mason.
But yes, it does strike one as peculiar, that Hamilton would not be a Mason, since he was so close to Washington.
And don't forget the crazies who keep screaming BUY GOLD, BUY GOLD, BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD! LOL
FR's anti-Masons lie more than Bill and Hillary Clinton...combined.
We should write the Paranoid Lunatic Party platform.
LOL, so true. And my earlier theory to you concerning these Catholic anti-Masonic threads as being diversions, fits in the mold of the style of slick willie and hildabeast.
I think the wisdom was 'don't eat meat in front of your younger brother if it causes him to stumble.' Many are still on liquids and would choke. The mental digestive system takes time to develop.
But what is a Mason anyway? What makes a Mason? Membership? Not so! Is it learning a ritual? Not so. I'm sure many here would be surprised to learn that they are already Masons, already involved in building their house -- laying the foundation for their present and future realities. Consciously chipping away at their rough forms of response.
And of course, there are those who think living in a hive-like dormitory is the way to go. One size fits all. A one-note song.
