JULY 4 is a date firmly fixed in the consciousness of all Americans. Perhaps it should also be imprinted in the mind of Scots with a sense of history. Who was involved in the building of the White House? And who helped to start the American War of Independence? The surprising answer might be Scottish freemasons.

Freemasonry is not anti-Catholic.
The Master of the Lodge in which I entered Freemasonry was a Roman Catholic in good standing with his church.
That's good if you don't, because like I said in my post, it's "Leftist's logic".
This is the complete quote - maybe you didn't notice the critical first part:
"Leftist "logic": "Many of America's Founders were "freemasons" therefore the Constitution really isn't in place to guard absolute (self-evident) moral truths and we have the right to change it."
Hope you and yours had a glorious 4th!
Had an incredible weekend :-)
You are of course aware that the candles in Christian Churches are snuffed out on Maundy Thursday or Good Friday depending on the denomination/liturgical tradition - it's called Tenebrae. The Church sanctuary is darkened, the textiles removed, etc. Hardly anti-Christian - but rather commemorating in symbol the death of the Savior.
"Slander, Lies, Ignorance and Defamation - Anti-Masons strongsuit since the 1700's."
BTW, I'm glad you posted because I remember how you pretty much silenced the opposition in another mason thread. Excellent points were made. I recall that thread went into 800s!
I think the RC Church has a 'Don't ask...Don't Tell" policy.
El Toro Caca! You have been cruising the tin-foil blogs again.
So many falsehoods!
You are repeating - complete with specious sourcing - a fraud and a hoax.

That Italian Banking scandal was involved in a clandistine "Masonic" lodge, not recognized by the mainstream Masonic community.
Oh, I'm SO very glad to hear that! :-)
They always claim that there are "higher...secrect degrees" which none have heard of. Tinfoil chapeau time.
What an Idiot!
There are only a couple of the lying tinfolilers here and many others have long ago vanquished them, beautifully; I might add. I only poked them slightly, because many others shoved the facts down their throats already.
LOL! You have a wonderful way of expressing yourself with words.
Yeah, but damned little knowledge. You are probably just miffed that your Father wouldn't spill his guts to you.
And since you don't know anything at all about FreeMasonry, but hate it on such a visceral level, I suggest that you leave this thread. Heck, don't ever go to Washington D.C. either and for GOD's sake, when in Manhattan, do not go see anything at the City Center, because that building was originally a, *gasp*, MASONIC TEMPLE.
