Is Freemasonry a religion or anti-religious by Duncan burden brought to you by Masonic audiobook Library Freemasonry is certainly not a religion but virtually all versions of Freemasonry do require a member to hold a belief in a supreme Divine Creator only under the grand Orient Lodge of
France is this not required which is why it is not recognized as true Freemasonry by the vast majority of other representative Grand lodges around the world it would seem difficult to appreciate Freemasonry without a belief and a Divine Creator as a primary aspect to its teachings and morality is the
Risk of divine judgment after death and if you don’t believe in God and subsequently that final judgment it rather makes the process redundant equally though the processes work on the concept of appreciating Divine creation so again without believing in Divine creation even a divinely inspired Evolution system would again make free
Missionary more than just slightly empty for an atheist prayers in the presence of a recognized book or books of worship are used within Masonic meetings empathizing the concept of divine belief the Masonic prayers are no different in significance to someone saying grace over a meal they are not specific to a
Singular Faith just a homage to God Goodwill and a simple moment of reflection on being grateful the books of worship or volumes of sacred law as called by frison can be any recognized book relating to an individual’s Faith the most common representation is obviously Bible but depending those
Present and the customs and choices of the lodge such books as a Corin or Torah can often be found being used in some lodges it is common practice to have a variety on constant display due to the various fates of the Masons present Freemasonry is not a replacement to any
Individual’s Faith or system of religion instead it is just seen as a common Foundation element which helps represent both a sense of unity between them and a foundation of common reverence that each Mason uses to take their Oaths on although also as mentioned earlier virtually all systems of Freemasonry use
The basic principles of divine creation and divine judgment as fundamental tools to convey lessons in Morality charity and ethics as such Freemasonry is not a religion but if anything is designed to support an individual’s existing faith and neither is it anti-religion as it encourages people to follow Faith as a
Mason must hold a personal belief be if where they are allowed to join so why are some church authorities against their congregation from joining the fremin the primary reason is due to a theological concept called deism deism is a theological idea that a person believes a God exists but believe that
Deity does not interfere with the actual events of the world nature or Humanity the consequence of this would then also mean that there is no concept of divine revelation as this would be recognized as interaction as such someone who held aism belief would not believe in a
Divine origin or value to church prayer Saints prophets or Divine texts as they believe no interaction from Heaven would prompt or create it instead their belief in God is through reason and logic and by looking at the world in an almost scientific approach they could possibly find evidence that God exists because of
Very nature of existence both physically and mentally this was the basis of argument against most scientists during the Spanish Inquisition that anything that was deemed to be less divinely inspired such as the earth going round the Sun as it could have undermined the authority of the church who was meant to
Be divinely governed as such if the church was wrong about the nature of creation then the church could not be governed by the Divine intellect responsible for creation even if the scientific reasoning could be correct and the scientists still presented as evidence of divine creation such as were
Galileo Kepler and Newton all who appeared to believe in Divine creation but simply that the church definition was incorrect it was still condemned as it presented the possibility that someone could find god without spiritual guidance or church guidance missonary was and still is by some seen as deism
That it encourages an understanding of God and creation through science and reasoning instead of through spiritual guidance this misunderstanding is mostly due to the regular use of Masons being told to study and use classical methods of Education like the Seven Liberal Arts and Sciences and told to use them to
Study and appreciate the works of the almighty as these principles relate to the classical methods of studying nature and divine creation something that was the basis of a gentleman’s education from at leased the Renaissance to the early 20th century yet really this is a principle called theistic Evolution and
Something that Freemasonry does use which is to use science and reasoning to support your existing faith not replace it to be a free mind to appreciate that creation is a mystery to be solved and as we advance so will our skill and ability to appreciate creation yet never
Losing the Viewpoint that creation is divine meaning that even if creation is evolution and big bang based it is still working to a divine plan land that each generation is learning more and more about although this is just a basis a chassis on which freem missonary rests
The primary reason for the vehicle is to create an environment in which men can have the chance to enhance and appreciate the common qualities of Faith respect morality and charity by Duncan buron Duncan burden has been a Freemon for most of his adult life and is a
