All Masons take irrational oaths which are anti-God and anti-Patriotic. They are bound by one thing: destruction of Roman Catholicism. They are the ‘anti-Church’.

YOu are so very wrong on so many levels! Most of the Masons I know are profoundly patriotic and devout Christians or Jews! As to destruction of Roman Catholocism, it is just the opposite. The Roman Catholic Oligarcy is scared to death of any organization that questions their mind-control.

You do realize that many in the RCC considered “Americanism” and “Republicanism” to be “sins” in the 18th and 19th centuries.

If you know the content of such oaths you should probably state them. We will not be willing to quote the actual oath, but we will be willing to state whether what you allege has any basis in truth. From my own understanding, the oath is explicitly pro-God, who I am charged to always refer to with reverence as is due from a creature to a Creator, to invoke His aid in all my laudable undertakings and to esteem Him the chief good. All other obligations in Masonry are subject and consequent to this charge.

As to patriotism, after having charged the new entered apprentice to also pursue his duty to his neighbor (act upon the square with all) and then to himself (avoid all intemperance and irregularity, which may impair his faculties and debase the dignity of his profession), he is charged to be “a quiet and peaceable citizen, true to his government, and just to his country. He is not to countenance disloyalty or rebellion, but to patiently submit to legal authority and conform with cheerfulness to the government of the country in which he lives.”

Perhaps you do not consider these elements to support a firm belief in God or to emphasize the importance of being a loyal and patriotic citizen. Perhaps you might buy a dictionary, in which case.
