And what exactly does ORDERS TO BE CARRIED OUT mean. ? Sounds like a militia or something ? Is this christian like you mentioned ?
And why would an christain oranization like this need "degree's" for ?
Beisdes hearing the ole "All corporations have levels bit" please enlighten us.

I was being sarcastic. I was just repeating the silly things that others accuse Freemasonry of on these forums. None of it is true, of course, but that won't stop people from believing whatever makes a good story.
And Freemasonry does NOT have "levels". All masons are 100% equal, and nobody takes orders from anyone in Freemasonry. The whole notion of something like that going on in a fraternity is just absurd. It doesn't happen.
The ONLY time that anything of the sort goes on in Freemasonry, it's among the lodge's officers, who are elected to one-year terms. They have a hirearchy and chain of command, but this is only in place for lodge administration purposes. Outside of lodge business, even the Grand Master of a Grand Lodge is an equal member of the fraternity.
Oh, and one last thing: degrees, after the 3rd, don't mean a damn thing in Freemasonry. Degrees don't denote authority, position, rank or purpose within the fraternity. a 33rd degree mason and a 3rd degree mason are 100% equal. Any mason can be a lodge officer. Degrees are only badges of masonic membership, they show which bodies of Freemasonry you are a part of.

Masonry and Zoroastrianism actually are a lot more similar than Christianity and Masonry.
So hmmm, which one believes in a supreme force, and which one believes in worshipping 'opposites'? Hmmm, Masonry does accept all religions, regardless if they are Satanic, AKA opposite.
But its hardly worth mentioning. Most people don't know what Zoroastrianism is, and so they don't realize how the Devil is basically a Masonic addition to Christianity, while demons have existed in folk-lore forever.

The belief that you can only worship any one supreme being goes against Chritisanity ( God and the belief system in it's entirety. )
