Masons are a cult, like Moonies. I was offered, and rejected membership.

To become a Mason, a man must ask a Mason; not the other way 'round.

Freemasonry is not a cult and no matter how many times you say it is, won't make it one.

"I was offered, and rejected membership."

More likely, you petitioned and were black-balled. Freemasonry does not recruit.

You were offered nothing, no Mason will ever approach someone to ask them to join the lodge.

It's probably been said before... but you sir are full of baloney. The Masonic Lodge does not recruit.

Freemasonry is a religion, and as a movement is a conspiracy dedicated to the destruction of Christianity. It is antithetical to and incompatble with the Christian faith as established in the Church.

However, the average rank-and-file Mason knows nothing of this, has no part in any anti-Christian activity, and uses his local lodge as a source of entertainment and good business contacts, nothing more. Many good and decent people are Masons, and the local lodges do outstanding charity work. (Another example of the Lord turning evil to good ends.)

Attacking Freemasonry on a broad front is counterproductive. The average Mason is going to find any anatagonistic "debunking" of Freemasonry on the basic of its anti-Christian roots and purposes to be laughably at odds with what goes on down at the local Lodge, and will simply ignore anything one has to say on the subject. A better approach is to present your views on Freemasonry in an honest and friendly way, educating Masons on the origins of Freemasonry and the sinister purposes of its founders without getting into esoteric discussions of cosmic significance. By presenting Masons with the facts about the origins of the Masonic cult -- and by supporting your arguments with plenty of unbiased historical evidence -- one may well plant seeds of doubt in he minds of Masons about the movement as a whole. Planting those seeds of doubt is the goal to be achieved; sprouting them and growing them to fruition is the work of the Holy Spirit. Remember, the average Freemason is not a willing participant in a Satanic conspiracy; he is our friend, our father, our brother, and very often our fellow Christian. Treat him as such, not as an enemy whose beliefs have to be defeated.
