Conceivably, even more than one god, so long as one is "supreme". I would think some pantheistic systems would be acceptable where there was an "all-father" or equivalent. (Think Zeus, Odin, etc…)
As in does the Foundation for the Mason's allow free-religion; Or just so as long as the religion has one "god"?
Do you believe in a supreme being? If yes, welcome! If no, maybe Masonry isn't for you. (And I know quite a few Buddhist Masons who've found an answer that they're comfortable with in regards to that question. Nobody's going to drill you on it, but you have to be honest to yourself…)
I guess I'm confused as to what you'd tell a buddhist if he wanted to be a Mason

Thanks for a straight answer.
But if that is true (and I'm not baiting here) why is it a secret society? What is so precious that it needs to be secret? Did I miss something? Most of the things you wrote are generally common sense as a decent human being.
One last question (I'm picking your brains tonight! ). What do you make of the supposed Illuminati? They are claimed to have strong links to Masonic beliefs, but yet the percieved MO of them sounds nothing like what you believe. I do appreciate that IF such an organisation such as the Illuminates were true, they'd be another tier of secrecy... I just don't understand how it can be so different.
In fact, I imagine you must have a very strong dislike for them, as it is that connection alone that casts doubt and suspicion over all of your beliefs and the people within the various orders around the world. You must discuss this with other members, surely?
I assume that you and other Masons in here don't want to send the whole world into slavery, or wipe them out.
Anyay, thanks for the candor, and I hope I'm not asking too many difficult questions.
