I'd like to visit the Garden of Eden, maybe like in week two or three, when things were still new, and Eve hadn't yet put on her fig leaves. Wouldn't you expect the First Woman to have been the most beautiful woman ever created, having just come off God's fresh, new assembly line?And I'd get to see God, too, back in the days when he still walked among his creation, to and fro in the garden.Widow's SonBurningTaper.com

A truly amazing read.  Honestly, kind of scary.  I was left with a really sick feeling over what I had discovered.  That freemasons are so woven into the fabric of our society.  That Washington DC street layout was influenced by the Freemason, George Washington.  The layout clearly having the demonic goathead and pentagram.  The meaning of the many obelisks, buildings, their positioning, the design of our currency, and much more.  Not to mention the New World Order, and Albert Pikes visions of three world wars.Question to anyone that has spent time considering Freemasons.  What is the ultimate purpose and meaning of such an ever present organization?

Yes, Freemasonry is "woven into the fabric of society." In fact, the principles embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution reflect Masonic principles.The primary tenets of Freemasonry are brotherly love, relief and truth (some areas say "morality" instead of "truth"). In most jurisdictions, any man 21 or older who believes in a Supreme Being may petition a lodge to become a Mason.It is said that "Freemasonry is a peculiar system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols." It is dedicated to the Brotherhood of Man under the All-Seeing Eye of Deity. In other words, Freemasonry exists as a reminder that we should treat all men as brothers. Symbols in general, of course, can mean whatever you want them to mean. To me there is no such thing as a "demonic goathead and pentagram," but if you choose to interpret them that way, that's okay with me. In Freemasonry, there is no symbolic goathead, and a pentagram, after all, is just a star. Nothing "evil" about a star, no matter what way it points, unless you believe it to be so.There are many Masonic symbols, and sometimes many levels to their meanings. However, none of the meanings is evil. Fundamentalists and conspiracy theorists love to repeat the long-debunked lies of Leo Taxil, who made up all the "evil Masons" stuff over a hundred years ago to further the animosity between Catholics and Freemasons, after he was spurned by both groups. Taxil admitted his hoax on his deathbed, but that hasn't stopped five generations of anti-Masons from repeating his fiction.For a quick history of Freemasonry from 1425 to the present, see my synopsis of Prof. Andrew Prescott's work. Or read his original speech.The "thing" around W. Bro. George Washington's neck is simply a Past Master's jewel. It signifies he was a Past Master of his lodge. You can read more about the Past Master's jewel. In that artwork he is performing a dedication ceremony for the cornerstone of the U.S. Capitol. After leveling the stone, he would pour corn, oil and wine on it.Widow's Son
