I don't think this little
ad hominem should go unanswered, as it's not only a blatant lie, but also a personal insult.
So why don't we compare a small list of Masons with a small list of people who have been against Masonry, and see who is
really "not
good"?
LIST OF MASONS:
George Washington (soldier, first President of USA)
Benjamin Franklin (philosopher, writer, mathematician, statesman)
Paul Revere (patriot)
John Hancock (patriot)
Samuel Adams (brewer, patriot)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (composer)
Johannes Von Goethe (poet)
Rudyard Kipling (author)
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (author)
Jean Sibelius (composer)
Duke Ellington (jazz musician)
Count Basie (jazz musician)
John Wayne (actor)
"Buffalo" Bill Cody (crusader for Native American rights)
J.C. Penney (department store owner, well known for his philanthropy)
Charles Wesley (hymn composer, nephew of John)
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale (Methodist bishop, writer)
Col. Harlan Sanders (founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken, philanthropist)
Dave Thomas (Sanders' protege, founder of Wendy's, philanthropist)
Audie L. Murphy (World War II hero who became the most decorated soldier in US Army history)
Voltaire (philosopher, writer)
LIST OF PEOPLE OPPOSED TO MASONS AND MASONRY
Adolf Hitler (conspiracy theorist, fascist dictator)
Benito Mussolini (fascist dictator, Catholic apologist)
Mao Zedong (Chinese communist dictator)
Josef Stalin (conspiracy theorist, Soviet communist dictator)
Pol Pot (Cambodian communist dictator, terrorist)

Pat Robertson (conspiracy theorist, right wing religious fanatic)

I think most of the readers here can tell which ones are the good guys, and which ones are the bad.
