As a freemason myself I am always willing to listen to these statements for a couple reasons:

  1. I want to see if there is something i am overlooking or missing from my experience which has seen absolutely 0 evidence of satantic worship, satanic ritual or other evilness within the lodge or pervasive amongst members

  2. I want to see if they even know what theyre talking about.

Right off the rip this lady ruins her credibility. To be a shriner you DO NOT have to be a 32nd degree or 33rd degree mason. In fact those two things are entirely unrelated as everyone starts in a local lodge known as “blue lodge”. There you receive the Entered Apprentice, Fellowcraft, and ultimately the Master Mason degree. After that you are able to join appendant bodies such as Scottish Rite (where you can receive degrees 4-32), York Rite (which has a number of degrees that have names but not numbers), Shriners, or The Grotto. You can join any of them, all of them, or none of them. And none of the degrees of appendant bodies make you any “higher up”. They are considered supplemental degrees or “horizontal degrees”.

I am not discounting this lady’s personal experience but it may just be that her dad was a shitty person and had another shitty friend who were also masons. Its not like masons are different that all other demographics. There are good guys and not good guys and the point of masonry is to make good men better but some men are not good people regardless of what fraternities they join.

Anyway, I’m sure yall will flame me and try to say “you dont know anything because of this reason or that” but im a freedom loving Christian American just like a lot of people here just trying to shine some light instead of innuendo lies and misconceptions about all this.
