I mean, masonry teaches you a form of tolerance, which is to try to understand and learn from the opinions of each other (according at least to Di Bernado, one of the more polemic masonic authors) . So how can anybody be a religious fanatic and choose to become a mason? It seems strange, doesn't it. | |

It is difficult for me to understand religious fanaticism in any form. I attended a church a couple of weeks ago because the topic of discussion was the evils of Freemasonry. I made no bones when I walked in that I was a Freemason but I told them the reason I was there was to educate myself, not to argue with them. One of the attendees told me he was not able to judge me that only God could do that, I was a little unsure how to take that but I chose the high road and said he was exactly correct, it was not his place to judge.
I believe strongly in the separation of church and state and I see Freemasonry akin to the state and do not feel religion should come into play at ALL. | |
