I've been somewhat perplexed by the info/disinfo about Freemasonry but would like to try to understand more.
My Grandfather, who died about a year before my birth was a highly respected member of society. He was a founder of the RAF an MP amongst other things (I'm not sure if this is relevant though). I do know that he was a Fremason but unfortunately can't ask him about it due to his passing. I know alot about him but this is something that I feel I need to know more about.
I'm not out to get anyone here, I'm just interested.
I feel that out of respect and some intrigue, that I need to learn more as there is some bad 'press' going around these days towards the subject.
I found a Nigerian 'Emulation' ritual pocketbook from 1956 today too and it's interesting.
I'd appreciate if anyone want's to give me some info. Feel free to send a u2u if you'd prefer.

what a joke, who ever takes the "mainstream media" seriously. The whole mainstream media are corrupt.
The freemasons on this site ar hilarious, trying to convince us all that freemasonry is only interested in charity work.
There is no reason why people shouldn't hear Schnobelens account and draw their own conclusions.

Hello Xeros,
Imagine if you could actually know who the best person to ask would be? Would you find him here, or might you even find him in a Masonic Lodge today? ?

When I was a boy and I wanted to know more about Freemasonry, I had already known Theosophy and before I asked this question, I knew someone whom I trusted much more than myself and his opinions on Freemasonry were due to not merely his membership but his deeper spiritual wisdom. Will you find this spiritual wisdom easy to find today?

I hope you do not mind me first asking you if you believe in the spiritual worlds because the answer to your question will appear to come in several ways depending upon how you first see yourself in relation to the rest of the universe.

If you're simply looking for a quick response of what is modern Freemasonry and if you wish to learn more about the material understandings, then I'm sure the good Mason Brothers here will be more than delighted to assist you.

The main purpose of masonry IMHO is to pursue excellence in character, subdue the instincts that make us angry and hostile and hone our ability to live in harmony with our fellow man.
