| No Freemason makes any sort of commitment that runs at cross purposes

|This is just one of over 318,000 websites Google found. I know nothing
|about this nutcase and frankly I don't care, but I cannot fathom that all
|318,000 websites about your oath are all a pack of liars and
|schitzophrenics with an axe to grind against Freemasons if Freemasons are
|totally innocent, as you infer.
Then why, why, post this idiot's ramblings? According to him,
Freemasons are guilty of causing anything bad that ever happened
ever.... He's your source of truth? He claims to be a Catholic
Priest, yet claims the Vatican is run by Freemasons and Homosexuals?
Oh, good grief.....
|So, you proclaim to your Freemasons across the world you never took any
|kind of oath like this at any time in your Freemason history? Is that
|correct? I'm not talking about the exact wording listed in this website.
|I'm talking about ANY OATH OF ALLEGIANCE OR LOYALTY to Freemasonry over all
|others, regardless of the exact wording.
|
|Do you so proclaim?
Yes, I do so proclaim. There is nothing in Freemasonry that asks a
member to follow "them" over anybody else. Even if so, I would only
make a proclamation to the Grand Lodge of North Carolina. There is no
ruling body. There are 50 different Grand Lodges in the US.... more if
you count all of the Prince Hall Lodges.
||Freemasonry sure has the Christians all stirred up and fighting mad.....One
|cannot but wonder why. There aren't thousands of Christian webpages
|against Elks, VFW Posts, American Legion, Order of the Moose or ....
You need to google some more.
|Why is that? Why is it FREEMASONRY they are so adamantly after if nothing
|is wrong?
Your logic makes about as much sense as suggesting that we all ingest
feces because 100,000,000,000 flies can't be wrong.
Why is that? Because they have as twisted an understanding of this as
you do. Somebody told them what to believe and if God said it, they
believe it, and that's that. A quick google will prove that most, if
not all, of the Christian anti-whatever (Masonic, included) groups
have some form of non-profit status to allow the faithful to send
money. The one you posted certainly has a big blinking link begging
for money to fight the "Organization Formulated and Controlled by
AntiChrists." Think that has anything to do with it?
