Freemasonry is
one of the world's oldest secular fraternities with some 4
million members worldwide. It is a society concerned with moral
and spiritual values. Its members are taught these precepts by a
series of ancient forms, using the custom and tools of the
stonemason as allegorical guides.
The Essential
Qualification for Freemasonry
The essential
qualification for admission is belief in a Supreme Being.
Membership is open to men of integrity from any race or religion
who can fulfil this essential qualification.
Freemasonry and
Religion
Freemasonry is
not a religion, or a combination of religions, nor is it a
substitute for religion. It expects its members to adhere to
their own faith, and it does not permit discussion on religious
matters at Masonic meetings. The Three Great Principles
Freemasons are expected to adhere to three principles:
"Brotherly
Love"
Every true Freemason will
show tolerance and respect for the opinions of others and behave
with kindness and understanding to his fellow creatures.
"Relief" Freemasons are taught to practice charity, and to care,
not only for their own members, but for the community as a
whole, by both charitable giving, and by voluntary effort.
"Truth
Freemasonry
strives for truth and requires high moral standards of its
members.
