I'm not in it for religious reasons. In fact the two topics that are not allowed inside a Lodge meeting is religion and politics. As stated before it's a chance to work with and be a part of my local community doing good things. You seem to believe that there is a lot more going on at Lodge meeting than there is. You may discount the good we do for our community but I'm very proud to be a of it. Very few things exist for the purpose of doing good and bringing people together in this world and thus I do understand why it's attacked so much.
Yeah, you might be doing some decent charity stuff at the lower levels. All you have to do is look at the elite class of politics, business, entertainment etc to find freemasons everywhere. Maybe go talk to your closest 33rd degree mason about Lucifer to learn more.
Blue Lodge Masonry has but three degrees. Anything further is either part of the Scottish or York Rite (You do have to be a Master Mason to join them but they are separate organizations with there own membership, dues etc).I don't claim to know anything about anything else other than what goes on in my local Lodge. That said maybe there is some strange things that go on in other places, I'm not well informed enough to speak on that, but I do know what goes on in my Lodge as I've been it's leadership for years. Community Lodges are not the problem with our world, in fact we do what we can to bring community together.
You are a low degree mason missing the forest for the trees. Simple as.
Maybe, but I'm doing good for myself and my community. Being a Freemason has allowed me to take part in many charities and good works. I've meet and befriended many people from many walks of life I never would have without it. I've learned a ton about leadership and moving a volunteer workforce into taking on and completing an array of tasks, from charity events to rise money, building projects to improve our facilities and much more. It's allowed me to confront my issues with social anxiety and public speaking, it's help build my confidence and I like to think has help make me a better man.
