Masons used to literally run society and not as long ago as you might think. And by the way , I’ve been traveling for about 20 years.

A guy I work with is in it and when I asked him about it he recited some memorized greeting that caught me off guard. Lost interest in asking anything else after that weird exchange.
It is easier to fool a man than to convince him he has been fooled.

Absolutely, couldn’t be further from the truth So is it true free masons strip you down to your underwear, blind fold you and hold a knife to your throat as an initiation tradition? I really dont know a whole lot about them but I've done some work in one of the lodges and it creeped me out! All the symbols , hand shakes and so forth are rather strange.

Nothing strange or sinister (this is what a cult is)
The largest, oldest fraternity in the world? Maybe

Maybe [/quote] “a relatively small group of people having religious beliefs or practices regarded by others as strange or sinister.” Strange OR sinister Religious beliefs OR practices 1) it’s a relatively small group of people 2) 99% of people not in it think it’s practices are strange It’s a cult, so is auburn university. It doesn’t make it a bad thing

Fraternity yes. Cult in the sense of the way most view a cult no.
Some of the posts are ridiculous on this matter. It isn’t about riding a freaking goat. If Masons, Scottish Rite and Shriners that attempt to help others in the community, children etc are a cult than let it be so. There is certainly no ill will done upon others. I know. I was just having fun. Traveling man myself.
