Is freemasonry a religion or a cult?
It is neither. The Scottish Rite and Symbolic Lodge Masonry does not espouse the belief of any one religion, but are a respecter of all major moral religions of the world. Scottish Rite and Symbolic Lodge Masonry have never inferred nor stated that their edifices were to be houses of worship, but places where every good man’s religion would be equally respected and persecution for one’s religious beliefs would not be tolerated.
Who may become a Freemason?
Freemasonry has always welcomed men of all faiths and religious beliefs to enter its doors. The only requirement is for good men to believe in the Supreme Architect and the immortality of the soul. This faith we take to be the outward and visible sign of an inward and spiritual grace. And it is from this internal moral foundation that Freemasonry labors to make good men better by building within each Brother of the Craft a Temple of good works and ethical achievements.
Is freemasonry a secret society?
Absolutely not. Masonic markings appear on Masonic Temples. Masons wear Masonic jewelry. Meetings are advertised in newspapers. Books in libraries and book stores cover all phases of Freemasonry. Masons do enjoy distinctive means of identifying each other as a way of testing knowledge of the work.
How did freemasonry begin?
Freemasonry is ancient, having existed in some form for so long that many serious students have differed as to the time and place of its origin. There is evidence of a basic type of craft association which antedates the Christian era. It survived various transitions which took place during the Middle Ages. Freemasonry was established in England in 1717. Since then its lodges have spread to free countries throughout the world. When Freemasonry reached the shores of the New World in the early 18th Century, Masonic Lodges produced leaders who would make a lasting impact upon our emerging nation. Of the thirty-nine men who affixed their signatures to the United States Constitution, thirteen were Masons. George Washington and Benjamin Franklin were members of Masonic Lodges, as were thirteen of the American Presidents who would follow, including Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman and Gerald Ford.
