The Universal Masonic Landmarks
Masonic Landmarks are certain universal, unalterable and unrepealable boundaries of the Craft. Grand Lodges around the world recognize many Landmarks, but the following seven are commonly recognized by all Grand Lodges; Monotheism, Belief in Immortality, the Volume of the Sacred Law, the Legend of the Third Degree, the Symbolism of the Operative Art, Secrecy and that a Mason must be a freeborn, male adult.
Monotheism is the belief in one god that is required of every initiate. His concept of the Supreme Being is left to his own interpretation. Freemasonry is not concerned with any other theological distinctions. This is the basis of our universality. source

This would imply a situation where God is neither omnipotent nor unique and not worthy of the respect and adoration due to God by every Mason. It therefore becomes quite obvious why any Mason obligated to believe in God would not and could not call God by the name Lucifer or Satan.

However the GATOU does not have the same nature/character as the christian God so you re point is irrelevant to begin with.
The GATOU come to bring knowledge and pride whereas Jesus preaches humility and submission,faith to himself alone. Clearly they cannot be the same deity "jesus stated by their fruits ye shell know them"
The 'GATOU' (sic) is the Creator of the Universe (God), how many ominpotent beings can there be? You happen to call God 'Jesus', I do not.

I have read much about masons from js millers Occult theocracy and John Robinsons born in blood to most of Micheal Baigents books so i know enough about the subject.
The idea of treating me like a fool is only making you look like a fool it does not reflect on me!.

1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Looks like a thread OP I wouldn't click on to begin with.

I believe Albert Pike would beg to differ. Hallel ben shakar is Satan's old title. He was being compared to the glory of Venus.
BELIEVERpriest
In "morals and dogma" Pike identifies Lucifer and Adonai as two opposing Gods. Gods are objects of worship.
So Pike identifies Lucifer as God of enlightenment while calling Adonai the God of darkness. Therefore, Pike worshipped Lucifer.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Masons worship the Sun instead...
One case they sound like logical people that are mixed in science and faith, while rich. Other cases they sound like they got some freaky fetishes indeed.

Ya know whats stupid about this thread? - Many Masons DO worship Satan. This is a proven fact.
