Freemasonry is not political, even though some people assume it must be.
Over the years, many well-known leaders, public figures and capable men have been Freemasons. That has sometimes led to speculation about influence, politics or hidden agendas.
Inside the Lodge, partisan politics is set aside on purpose. Like sectarian religious debate, it can divide men who would otherwise meet in friendship and mutual respect.
By keeping politics outside the Lodge, Freemasonry creates space for something better: fellowship, reflection, history, philosophy, charity and the development of character.
Freemasonry is not about promoting a political programme. It is about building men who think clearly, act with integrity and contribute meaningfully to their families, communities and country.
