What is so secret about the free masons?
The idea that Masons are secretive is a myth. A visit to the website of most Grand Lodges will tell you everything you ever want to know about it. Masonry is a fraternity tht teaches a philosophy of good moral behavior, and teaches you to put God at the center of everything you do. (no specifics are taught or discussed, so that any God fearing man of any religion may be a Mason.) these lessons are taught in “degrees” which are ceremonies that are designed to teach a bit at a time. Once you have proven that you have grasped the teachings of one degree, you are allowed to receive the next. These ceremonies are kept private so that the members can enjoy the experience, and not have it spoiled for him, the same way you dont want to know how a movie ends before you see it. The symbols of the fraternity are mostly the tools used by the ancient and midieval stone guilds. The allegory (like parables; stories told or enacted to make a point) is based upon events or characters in the Old Testame
