Have You Ever Considered Becoming a Mason?
As published by the Masonic Renewal Committee of North America Freemasonry is the oldest, largest Fraternity in the world. It's members have
included Kings, Presidents, Prime Ministers, Statesmen, Generals, Admirals, Supreme Court Chief Justices, corporate CEOs, opera stars, movie stars,
and probably, your next door neighbor. And Masonry is always ready to welcome good men into the Fraternity. It's ready to welcome YOU, if in your heart
you can answer "yes" to a few questions.
Masons teach that principle. We believe that a life not founded on honor is hollow and empty -- that
a man who acts without honor is less than a man.
No atheist can be a Mason. Masons do not care what your individual faith is -- that is question
between you and your God -- but we do require that a man believe in a Supreme Being
Masonry insists on tolerance -- on the right of each person to think for himself in religious, social
and political matters.
Masonry teaches that each man has a duty not only to himself but to others. We must do what we
can to make the world a better place. Whether that means cleaning up the environment, working on
civic projects, or helping children to work or read or see -- the world should be a better place
because we have passed through it.
Masons are involved with the problems and needs of others because we know it gives each of us a
good feeling -- unlike any other -- to help. Much of our help is given anonymously. We're not after
gratitude, we're more than rewarded by that feeling which comes from knowing we have helped
another person overcome some adversity, so that their life can go on.
Masonry is mutual help. Not just financial help (although that's there, too) but help in the sense of
being there when needed, giving support, lending a sympathetic ear.
Masons know that self-development is more precious than money in the bank or social position or
political power. Those things often accompany self-development, but they are no substitute for it.
Masons work at building their lives and character, just as a carpenter works a building a house.
Masons believe that a country is strong as long as freedom, equality, and the opportunity for human
development is afforded to all. A Mason is true to his government and its ideals. He supports its
laws and authority when both are just and equitably applied. We uphold and maintain the principles
of good government, and oppose every influence that would divide it in a degrading manner.
Masons do. We believe in a certain reverence for living things, a tenderness toward people who
suffer. A loving kindness for our fellow man, and a desire to do right because it is right. Masonry
teaches that although all men are fallible and capable of much wrong, when they discover the
goodness of heart, they have found the true essence of virtue. Masonry helps men see their
potential for deep goodness and virtue.
Masons see brotherhood as a form of wisdom, a sort of bond that holds men together -- a private
friendship that tells us we owe it to each other to be just in our dealings and to refuse to speak evil
of each other. Masons believe a man should maintain an attitude of good will, and promote unity and
harmony is his relations with one another, his family, and his community. Masons call this way of
believing in the Brotherhood of Man. It really means that every Mason makes it his duty to follow the
golden rule. This is why Masonry has been called one of the greatest forces for good in the world.
