You're correct, you have to have a belief in a "higher power", it's just that there are different names for that "higher power" due to the fact that there are many different religions that call a "higher power" by many different names, as the Freemason, it does not concern me as to what name you give your "higher power". I am a member of the few lodges in Washington, DC that have members of all different faiths and religions, I sit in a lodge with Jews, Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, and Native Americans of various different beliefs, we all have a belief in a higher power and yet we can all sit together in the same room and work together as one regardless of our religious and cultural beliefs.

Atheists and Satanism have no place in the Masonic Fraternity, now if somebody were to take the time to educate themselves about Freemasonry they would not make such an idiotic and silly uninformed statements. Just my opinion and knowledge.
Ex-Freemasons have told all about it, but you will not allow their testimonies on this board, will you? I mean, if one investigates they go to the ex-s to reveal it all, as the ones in it, like you, will not tell all, will they?

It is telling, is it not?

I guess you're here to spread your uninformed lies again, if you really want to find out something about Freemasonry why don't you educate yourself about it instead of spreading your uninformed lies about something of which you know nothing about.

Thats got to be one of the most ignorant statements I have seen in a LONG time but not totally unexpected Moderator cut: Deleted as offensive are taught to think that of us. I don't believe in santa jesus and I don't believe in satan either.

You see here is where you're wrong again, there is no such thing as an Ex-Freemason, you either are a member of the fraternity or you're not, no in between, it's just as simple as that. Like I said, you're spreading lies about something that you know nothing about or at least you think you know a little something about it because somebody told you so and you have no idea who or what that person was talking about. Do you know the old saying about a little bit of knowledge being in a dangerous thing, well in your case, it's no knowledge at all.

The work of Charity, of which you probably know nothing about.

My uncle was a Mason, 33rd degree or something, he was the president of his local union, never went to church, drank like a fish, slept when he wasn't working and wore one of those big masonic rings.

Why do you call my posts "uninformed lies"? I am a born again in Christ believer and we are told in the Bible to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness. That freemasonery is a work of darkness is testified to by many ex-freemasons. Are they all liars?
I lived with an aunt, uncle, and two cousins when I was aged 16, for a time. and they had no love for Jesus Christ [I was already a backslider and had no love for Him either, at that time], but their lives revolved around Freemasonry. My uncle was proud of his involvement in Freemasonry and held a high post, but I cannot tell you how high, as it meant nothing to me. His son was a demolay, always going to the meetings also, and was always lusting after me -I mean he had a demon of lust shining right out of his eyes, and was trying to "lay me", and I had to be careful to keep myself out of his entrapments, and I had no one to defend me, as his parents had given me a home -so where was I to go? I did move out after a few months, and always avoided lustful cousin after. He later became a county deputy, fat, and a good fornicator in the area, going though women like candy. That is my only personal, intimate relationship with Freemasons and eastern stars and demolays, but ex-Masons for Jesus speak up about the darkness and how they are delivered from demons when they repent and confess the involvement in that darkness.

So now we can add Freemasons to the list of things you hate such as the Mormons. I have a feeling it's a very long list.
