There are only 3 degrees in Blue lodge. In the Scottish Rite you can get up to 32. The 33rd is more of an award than a real degree. But once you get your First degree, You're as much as a Freemason as a 33rd degree

Its hard to approve visitation for black lodges. You have to request permission through your grand lodge, who communicates the prince hall grand lodge, who asks the prince hall lodge for permission, who then allow or deny it, then they have to send word back to their grand lodge, who sends it to your grand lodge, who then gets it back to your lodge. Takes about 6 months to approve 1 visit if everyone does what they need to.

Freemasons, at least in my district, have a line in the Charge where you are instructed to follow your government faithfully.
Freemasonry is a fraternity of men and brothers who meet for work, through which, you become a better man. I joined for that, as well as so I could study the rich history. Our History supposedly dates back to King Solomon

So what is it you are "Charge"ing for?

Im just curious because its springtime and things get "hot and sweaty".

I am well aware of the history. I am beyond struck as to what to give my life for.

As a civillian I feel lost in many tides of change. I do not have a faithful job nor am i in any possible position of responsibility other than my own life.

Just curious.

The Freemasons of today are like the Hell's Angels of today, the Angels outside of San Bernardino aren't hardcore, they're just a club. There may be "hardcore" Freemasons somewhere, but they aren't in the common lodges all over the US, and elsewhere..

Typically, its said 2B1ASK1
But that phrase was coined before the internet, where its easier to find lodges and meeting times. Usually, in the US, your state will have a Masonic Grand lodge website that will give you instructions on how to join or find a lodge. In my case, I found a lodge and emailed them, but if you see a building with the masonic square and compasses, and you see cars outside, just go on in, im sure that any brothers inside can help you out

1. A religious man who wants to improve himself and help others
2. Nothing to worry about
3. Satanists can't be Masons
4. Must be: A man, 18 years old, no felonies, and a belief in a God
5. You are not harmed or humiliated during initiation. Nothing gay either.
6. Masons don't wear masks. Maybe the KKK or wiccans?
7. To improve yourself, fellowship, charity, and meeting people you wouldn't normally meet.

Improvement is what you make of it. Many people join masonry for many reasons. I can't explain it really. You get out what you put in.

what degree are you? any "evil" Freemasons in your lodge?

I know someone who did and joined rotary instead, would they have been exposed to death threats like is freemasonry like scientology or islam do they have apostasy?
also I'm curious about joining because from what I've heard it's about the betterment of humanity but idk if i qualify because my religous beliefs are monotheistic but not compatible with the abrahamic religons

I'm a Master Mason, which is as high as you can go without going into one of the offshoot branches.

A Shiner is an offshoot of masonry. They completely fund the Shriners hospitals for children.

My great grandfather was a freemason, can I join?

>>673337416
Literally nothing happens to you if you leave voluntarily or are kicked out. As long as you believe in a deity you're good to go.

>>673337685
Perhaps originally, when you said "Free Masonry lodges only accept white men" it could easily be interpreted as that is still a current practice.
>>

what? youre a 3rd degree mason, but also a master mason? cant go higher unless youre in an offshoot branch, which you are in one right? Shriner branch.
do you believe in God? Infinite Creator?

They won't tell me shit.

So... What is it you hope to find in the east?
>>
>>673337862
Sure

>>673338055
Yeah, by competing your rd degree you become a master mason. The whole 33rd Degree mason is a part of the Scottish Rite branch. I'm in the shiners, but there's no more degrees in there.

I was a christfag when I joined, but I've recently converted to Odinism. You can't be an Atheist, probably not agnostic either but there's some grey area there imho.
>>
>>673338022
While most modern lodges do accept people of colour, women still not accepted most of the time.

>>673338055
Free Masons believe in all higher beings.

you die twice anon. when you breathe your last breathe and the last time someone thinks about you.

>>673338152
>why make such a big deal out of it?

They way I see it, it's about taking good men and making better men. It's about making the world a better place day by day one small act of kindness at a time.

I look at it this way. If someone is having a shit day and you help them out, their day is no longer shit. Or less shitty at the least. You made the world slightly better.

>>673338198
All? No. A lot of them? Probably. I'm just shit at spelling right now because it's 4 in the morning and I'm tired.

>>673338416
>women still not accepted most of the time

No they are not, but there is a reason for it.
>>
>>673338409
got it. did you have a ritual for becoming a master mason?

what's Odinism?

>>673338416
do they believe in all or one higher being? i went to the local lodge and read they accept members of all religions. just need to believe in a higher power. read online its because they worship Lucifer ultimately.
>>
>>673338022
If i don't believe in a diety, can i still join?
I'm agnostic.
>>
>>673338645
>and the last time someone thinks about you.
Our second deaths are a fabricated self, or an existence created by others. People won't remember our "true self," just a "self" they made with subjective memories and bias opinions. People are changed after they die when they are used to serve another person, quotes used out of context, etc.
>>
>>673339007
I have no problem with that, actually. Although it is mostly found ancient to accept only certain types of people, I find that it's just another way for forming a pyramid scheme. (Which is, if you think about it, the only way of running a society properly.)

>>673339037
All higher beings, or rather, all higher beings combined. They do not worship Satanic gods exclusively. They're definitely not Satanist, and are rather bound to "positive" gods.
>>
>>673334150

Norse mythology essentially.

>>673339037
There is a ritual for at least all of your first 3 degrees, and for just having a stated meeting.

>what's Odinism?
Worshiping the Norse Gods, with the primary focus on Odin.

>do they believe in all or one higher being?

Each mason can worship whatever deity he wants. But freemasonry as a whole has a vague term for all deities.

>read online its because they worship Lucifer ultimately.

No, it's not lucifer. It'd be a little hard to worship someone I don't think is real lol. There's actually a funny story behind that. The vague term for all the deities used(It's now something else, so I'm not breaking any oath) to be the God Of All Things. Goat. Symbol of satan. People incorrectly made the assumption they were connected.
>>
>>673339535
Of course, I know that. Although Lucifer is mostly associated with Satanism, and I thought it would clear things up a bit more if I told them that Masons aren't Satanic.

It's to ensure the oaths you take are binding. More along the lines of if you just swear something and you break that oath, whoopdie-fucking-doo. If you swear to a deity, you might be less prone to break that oath because you might incur their wrath or whatever. That's how it was explained to me anyway.

Lucifer is "positive" right? we wouldnt truly have free will if not for him. also all the earthly pleasures, except love, we get to experience in this earth is because of the Light Bringer.

Look up things like rodin coils, fubinocchi sequences and pynthagerean math, the way there are mathmatical harmonies in shape, sacrid geometry. The blueprints of the universe are out there, interconnected and in harmony. Any startong point is a fingertip into gripping the edges of the universe. All numbers are relevent, its what you do with them.

Just a few thing about Ragnarok off the top of my head are the three roosters crowing, the sun and moon will be swallowed by great wolves, one of the earliest signs of ragnarok will be a winter that lasts several years, the world will flood, The giants and other beasts will wage war with the Gods and the Einherjar and almost all the Gods will die and so will every human besides two. The flood will recede and the two humans will repopulate the earth.

I've thought about it, there has been people that I could think of as bodhisattvas. Currently I figure a person can live his or her current life, "self actualization" being the main goal; and when death comes hope to have peace of mind. I don't know what is important about things a person likely can't know, eg. things before birth and after death.
