Common Myths About Freemasonry

There is a great deal said about Freemasonry that simply is not true.

Over time, rumours have been repeated by sensational writers, films, television programmes and people who do not understand what they are seeing. Mystery fills the gaps. Speculation spreads quickly. Misunderstandings become myths.

Freemasonry does have private ceremonies and traditional modes of recognition. These are part of the experience of membership and progression through the degrees. But that does not mean Freemasonry has a hidden agenda.

Its ceremonies are structured, thoughtful and rooted in moral teaching. Its symbols are used to encourage reflection on character, responsibility and the improvement of the self.

If you step past the noise and look at Freemasonry directly, what you find is simple and solid: good men working on themselves, supporting one another and trying to live with integrity.
