Obelix   11 #26 Posted February 13, 2018 The acceptable face of freemasonry. What about the unacceptable face that is kept secret? Doing favours for each other, dodgy deals, promotions, turning a blind eye to wrong doing, cover ups etc.  We are talking about the Freemasons...  Not Labour (or UKIP or the Tories... )...  ---------- Post added 13-02-2018 at 12:40 ----------  We can discuss the Masonic Charitable Foundation. We are not permitted to discuss Baal worship.  You are not permitted to discuss any religion in a Lodge meeting because that's not what it's for. Contunially doing so gets you blackballed and ejected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

mafya   248 #28 Posted February 13, 2018 I know of an Asian businessman who is a Freemason, nice enough fellow and I was surprised when I first found out as I thought non white people would not be allowed as members. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
willman   10 #29 Posted February 13, 2018 Half the police involved in the Hillsborough disaster were freemasons. Look how long it took for the truth to come out.  It took 30+ years of digging and serious investigation by a group of people who simply would not give up.  So what - half of them weren't.  The truth is a matter of opinion and not as subjective as faded memories make us think.

The Joker   10 #33 Posted February 13, 2018 so?? hardly a state secret, or impacting anyone apart from nosey buggers:loopy:  oh dear, you’ve gone and dug yourself into a hole now  If the secret handshake is not really a secret, why won’t they show us ?  If their god is not really a secret, why won’t they tell us about him ?  After all, Freemasons keep telling us how open they are.  Feel free to include lots of ??? and !!! and in your reply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Dales   10 #36 Posted February 13, 2018 I know of an Asian businessman who is a Freemason, nice enough fellow and I was surprised when I first found out as I thought non white people would not be allowed as members.  I also know an Asian businessman here in Chesterfield who is a Freemason. I don't really know much about Freemasonry so I had a look online and it states that males of any race / religion can become members. Rightly so in my opinion. I wouldn't be welcomed though as I am female. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
