As long as I’ve been a Mason I have had to deal with people who profess to know what we Masons are up to....the list of conspiracies is long. Some who condemned the Masons the most had a change of heart when I or a fellow Mason went to bat and got their child or a child of one of their friends or family into a Masonic childrens hospital. Such is the way of things!!!!

The way of the Masons is always low key.

Yes. I have observed what you stated.

And there is the nonsense put on TV that purports to reflect history related to this. 10% factual 50% total lies 25% Pure ignorance 15% Twilight Zone.

This post is not meant to bash you or your fraternal organization, but just to provide some links to resources (books) which explain why Catholics and some other Christians will not become Masons, which you might want to check out sometime.    The first two books were written by a former Mason and are addressed mainly to Catholics, while the third book additionally explains why some Protestants and Orthodox also will not become Masons.
