Do you believe the muslims, who deny the Holy Trinity, worship the same "god" as your christian freemasons worship?
Do you worship the same "gods" whom the hindu freemasons worship?
Why Catholics Cannot be Masons
Many good Catholic men have been deceived into becoming Masons. In this powerful little book, a Catholic attorney and former 32nd degree Mason, John Salza, clearly shows why joining Masonry (including the Shriners) means embracing a false religion.
Having authored Masonry Unmasked for general readership, here John Salza writes specifically for Catholics, showing why the Church has always condemmed Freemasonry, and continues to condemn Freemasonry today (despite mistaken claims to the contrary.) He explains Masonic doctrines, history, rituals, oaths and curses, showing that Masonry is totally incompatible with Christianity and the Catholic Faith.
He answers the questions: Who is the god of Freemasonry? How does Freemasonry view the Holy Bible? What are the self-curses of Freemasonry? Why does Freemasonry appear to be compatible with the Christian Faith? What have the Popes said about Freemasonry? Are Catholics involved in Freemasonry excommunicated? How does a Catholic exit Freemasonry?
Packed with facts and very well documented, Why Catholics Cannot Be Masons is a brief but potent revelation by a man who has been there - and then returned to the One True Faith.
“Do you worship the same “gods” whom the hindu freemasons worship?
Never said I did. I just recognize the right of them to do so. Hinduism has a monotheistic (one God) as well as polytheistic (many of Gods) elements: the one Ultimate Reality or Supreme Being (Brahman) also exists simultaneously in the deities of the Creator (Brahma), the Sustainer (Vishnu) and the Destroyer (Shiva). So they have one God tied with other elements of their religion. Sound familiar?
And that’s that difference I mentioned. You try so hard to connect the craft to anything that is different from your religion while trying to push your religion on me and hunting for pieces of other religions to attack. You may not be the only true religion. God may be represented in many faiths. The difference is I don’t make an effort to force anyone to believe any one is right and all the others are wrong. I offer the hand of peace and cooporation while you try to stamp out other’s beliefs. And as long as you go after people with such a closed mind, you separate and condesend while I offer equality. And that’s one of the reasons for fear and a wish to over react as it creates distrust. So you mistrust me and attack my religious privileges while you set yourself on the pedestal of rightousness which I respect your privilege of being there.
You can worship in any way you wish. And I spent half my life defending that privilege. And you can pray at your alter 24/7 and I hope you are fullfilled. But don’t tell me after all this I’ve said that masonry is connected to bad people because they don’t follow your beliefs. You could be right or wrong. All you have to go by is the interpretation of what you read and hear. So hear this, we do not represent any religion in the craft. We only try to get men and women in that are of sound behavior so they can help us with our real job...our charities and are treatment of people in the best of effort. And by the way you have handled this interaction, it is obvious you do not becasue you aren’t interested in learning something, you are just interested in destroying it. I don’t wish to try to convert you as we don’t do that. You have to come to us without our coertion. You don’t work that way. Sad.
I’m done with this as I can’t continue to say the same things over and over and have you ignore them or try to destroy them. I’m not here for your entertainment and you don’t need to witness for me as I already know what I need to know...you have a deity, and if you are a good person, I would welcome you into our fraternity. You on the other hand belong to a group that threw us out generations ago without even understanding what we do and why and are still attacking us. Not very christian is it? So long. I won’t be answering any more posts from you. I did my best but it didn’t work out. I’m out of cheeks.
