This is what happens.
"Charitable" "Christian"
So you know what they do
And yet you continue
Also, I like how the Americans shit on the freemasons, but they fail to realize the founding fathers and a few presidents were Masons.
A band of murderers, and that's only what you know
If anything, they will just expel me from the lodge
yeah also most of the secrets have been leaked by now
Absolutely.
You just need to look them up.
But people don't do the research.
I am sure they are out there. If the Mormon temple ceremonies are out there than just about anything is.
And believe the organisation is precisely what it depicts itself to be.
Because they're insecure, rootless and desperate for fraternity.
These are who esotericism appeals to.
"Orthodox Church in America declares it to be forbidden to be a freemason."
Church of Greece
Mind you the church I attend is under Constantinople
Doesn't the Orthodox Church itself have fraternal organizations you can join?
And they have had a few freemasons.
And no it does not.
Only Russia and Greece forbid it, the other Orthodox Churches have never said anything about it. If two churches say something, it doesn;t apply to the whole Orthodox church.
That only happens if Constantinople says something and even then, a self-governing church like Russia. Romania, Greece, Albania, Cyprus, Georgia, Jerusalem, Poland, Czech, and Antioch can all say piss off.
Then the Orientals would have to take a stance since they are not in communication with Eastern Orthodox Churches.
Freemasonry is open to men of any faith, but religion may not be discussed at Masonic meetings. The Supreme Being. Masons believe that there is one God and that people employ many different ways to seek, and to express what they know of God.
Western Orhodoxes seem to be crypto-prots really
It's a universalist cult.
I mean how exactly does the Church take a united stand on anything if you have these national offshoots that you can ignore, pick and choose?
It's incoherent.
Swearing of secret oaths, "all paths to God are just", creeds which contradict Christian theology.
It's a religion that even holds that King Solomon WAS a freemason.
It considers itself a temple in the image of the First Jewish Temple
The very idea of the two pillars you walk through is an echo to Babylonian religion of Ishtar.
