This link should answer many a concern. Being a baptized Christian, I too am challenged by peers based on my convictions. I believe every organization or group of people are suspect by those that do not belong or do not wish to belong. It is truly a disadvantage to close ones eyes and heart based on prejudice. Every group in history has its bad actors. Some unsavory people have been aligned with one group or another. I am proud to be a F&AM for 30 years. I have never seen or heard a message through my lodge that asserts a world domination theme. In fact, reading the comments on this web site, has heightened my resolve to be a better brother.
What’s it like to be a Freemason? If I had my wallet stolen and were in need, I could seek out a brother for help. There would be no thought in my mind to defraud. This is why a candidate is invited. It’s simply an eye to eye and a pledge to do the right thing for one’s brother. If you doubt this, please take a look at all the Sr citizens homes and children hospitals across the country.
