The era of the free-masons.
Between 1937 and 1958, an amazing succession of publicly Masonic Supreme Court justices were appointed to the Supreme Court. Collectively, they radicalized American politics. Since their ascension, it can truly be said that every major socio-political change in America has been brought about by judicial, rather than legislative, means. They utterly dominated the Supreme Court during the Warren, Stone, and Vinson courts (1941-1969.) At times, as many as eight of the nine justice were Masonic.
The following is a listing of Masonic US Supreme Court justices appointed in the last 70 years. This is no conspiracy theory; all were very publicly Masonic. Allegations of covert Masonry (such as Ronald Reagan and Dwight Eisenhower) have been rejected for the purposes of this list.
Hugo Black (1937-1971)
S. F. Reed (1938-1957)
William Douglas (1939-1975)
Robert Jackson (1941-1954)
James Byrnes (1941-1942)
Wiley Rutledge (1943-1949)
Harold Burton (1945-1958)
Fred Vinson (1946-1953)
Tom C. Clark (1949-1967)
Sherman Minton (1949-1956)
Earl Warren (1953-1969)
John Marshall Harlan (1955-1971)
Potter Stewart (1958-1981)
Also, Thurgood Marshall (1968-1991) was a freemason.
Today, there are five (okay, four and a quarter) conservatives on the United States Supreme Court. Is it a coincidence that they are also the five members who cannot be freemasons?
Freemasons generally disdain Catholics, and Catholics may even incur excommunication by becoming Freemasons; all five are Catholic: Clarence Thomas, John Roberts, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, and Sam Alito. (Ruth Bader Ginsburg is not likely a freemason, nor is there credible evidence linking the other liberals to masonry.)
Unlike Roosevelt, Truman, and Johnson, John Kennedy was also not masonic. His appointments, Abe Fortas (1962-1965), and Byron White (1962-1993) were the only non-radical-leftists for several years on the court. Nixon, a Quaker, was also non-Masonic; Burger, while still liberal, was decidedly more moderate than his colleagues. Rehnquist was decidedly conservative. Unfortunately, the Senate blocked further conservatives, resulting in the selection of Lewis Powell, Jr.
Gerald Ford was a Freemason, and his selection, John Paul Stevens, while not publicly Masonic, continued the radical policies of prior freemasons. Was Stevens simply covertly Masonic? Sources alleging he was are not reliable, but his ties are definite.

(Clarence Thomas was not Catholic when he was appointed, but was Catholic previously and is currently Catholic.) All four solidly conservative justices have been linked to an anti-Masonic, Catholic group.
Yeah, right.
Bull, that isn't what happened.
Geee..my good father and grandfather were Masons.. I had no idea my wonderful dad was a cult member. He managed to run a small town business and was beloved in his community..Who knew?/S
I don't believe you.
I don't doubt your story. But the man should not have done that. It is the custom that all men should come to ask of their own free will. Nopardons is correct. The proper procedure is for one wishing to become a member must ask to join.
BUMP!
This really IS getting ridiculous! The anti-Masonic bunch on FR, are feeling their oats, for some weird reason.
Uhhh...whats your point?
Did They Invent MASON Jars.

Nopardons, maybe the cause is simple ignorance. Some do not possess the facts and perhaps others have never met a Freemason.
Oooooooooooo...please start another conspiracy thread about that!
Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, and John Wayne were Masons, and the Duke was even *gasp* a Shriner, which means that he had to be at least a 32 degree Mason.
Sam Houston was a Mason, so was Stephen Austin, Davey Crockett, and William B. Travis. What can you make out of that?
FDR and Sir Winston Churchill were Masons, as were Generals Edward Rickenbacker, Omar Bradly, and George C. Marshall. OTOH, Hitler HATED Masons and persecuted them.......
Hey......this tinfoil stuff isn't quite working out the way you wanted it to, I bet. LOL
Hey ugly, did you see this post, made by dangus? LOL

Women cannot become Masons. Women who believe in God can ask to join Eastern Star.
Ditto what Meg33 said. Bump!
Yeah, I know. I was just kidding. Thanks for the answer though.

ROFLOL! Okay then and you're welcome. :-)
Hey, did you know that both Samuel Colt and Richard Gatling were Masons?
BTW, most of America's first astronauts were/are Masons. Is there a theme emerging here, or what? LOL
