Your grandfathers and others that you know that are Masons:
Masonry aside, are they good people or bad people? Do they seem better or worse than the average person you know who isn't a Mason?
I think those are important questions to answer before comming to any conclusions about Masonry.

Firstly you will never be invited to join, so dont wait for an invite, even if your father was the grand master of london, he will not invite you to join, as it goes against the major rule that you can never invite or recruit someone into freemasonry.
You must ask a freemason if you want to join, any one can join, but nobody can be invited.
Its like this: A president wont be approached/invited to join masonry, but a taxi driver who seeks membership will most probably be accepted.
so what do they do if you post about masonic rituals with a non mason? cut off your fingers?

But if I wanted to join, can I do it on my own? Is there an official website for them? I did both a Google and Teoma search and I can't find anything.
If my memory serves me correct, there's a pretty grueling initiation to become a member. They also have restrictions on race and religion, and if you discuss Masonic rituals to a non-Mason, they cut off your tongue.

Oh yeah! There is another Mason in our family on my wifes side. He's a wealthy business man. Every Mason I know is of outstanding character. Atleast on the surface anyhow.
