Freemasonry unites men who, in brotherly
formations and through honorable and ritualistic methods endeavor to
achieve spiritual understanding and moral refinement. Universal
Charity, Brotherhood, Beneficence and Education toward these and
every thing which benefits humanity are its main purposes.
Freedom or religion, of conscience, and of
thought are Freemasonry's highest goal. Freemasonry accepts without
religious, racial, national or political prejudice or regard to
station in life, upright and moral men as Brothers. Freemasonry
recognizes in the structure of the World in all that lives in the
inner consciousness of man a divine Creator-Spirit, full of Wisdom,
Strength, and Beauty, and reveres Him as the Great Architect of the
Universe. Freemasonry's a moral, not a political order and takes no
part in political or religious disputes. It is not a religious
society, not a secret alliance, demands no unlawful secrecy and
imparts no magical information. |
