Freemasony is the world’s oldest and largest Fraternity. Its history and traditions date back to antiquity. Its singular purpose is to make Good Men Better. It’s bonds of friendship, compassion and brotherly love have endured even the most divisive political, military and religious conflicts throughout the centuries.
Freemasony is neither a place of worship nor a substitute for religion. Instead, it is a friend of all religions which are based on the belief of God or a Supreme Being. The teachings of Freemasonry are acceptable to all religions.
Freemasonry has members from every ethnic group and every continent in the world. Brotherhood is a primary teaching of Masonry--that each person must be judged as an individual, by his own merits, and that such factors as race, national origin, religious creed, social status, or wealth are incidental to the person's character. The objective is to Unite men, not to divide them!
