All? Is God the source of ALL beings? Many of us would say, yes! Is God in the actions and intentions of ALL beings, or do we now enter into the realm of infinite parts of infinity and free will?edit on 21-10-2013 by Unity_99 because: (no reason given)
Hi Unity!
I think yes to both.
Also gotta say this:
Free Will = Respecting Freedom of Others
Only way to Uphold it.

It isn't a question of what i want to know, it's the creation of a society that operates behind closed doors and sets itself up as the controlling factor within that society by becoming the means to furtherance within the establishments of State that is the issue for me.

So the op rants and shouts like a mentally challenged televangelist about something to do with freemasonry, then directs us to prior threads of theirs to achieve what I believe was alluded to as some type of enlightenment. Sweet.

Huh? So God spoke to you just to tell you about Free Masons? That is odd....nothing else, just to tell you about the secret to Free Masons?
Is God a Free Mason?
Call it figurative, an allegory, or even a story, I don't care.
Stop judging people all the time.
It's illogical, irrational, and rude.
Can't we be civilized humans and discuss honestly?

Deuteronomy 5:8-10
"‘You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
Judge not, that you be not judged. Matthew 7:1

Freemasonry is also an institution that can be hijacked by human beings with ill intent.

No, except for Nazi Germany and the Japanese interment during WW2, comes to mind. But this is taking a boogie man out of the closet as a metaphor.

Not really because as a non-member i'm not privy to the details, but in terms of general principle it can be seen that certain standards are required for membership...
But bearing in mind that during the Middle Ages the Guild System was the means by which the Catholic Church exerted influence through all levels of society...
...that during the Reformation this then became obsolete within Protestant Nations but was re-constructed in terms of Free Masonry as a means by which Protestant thinkers and idealists could exert those same controls and influences, then in reality it was the transference of the means of control from the hands of one group to another.
