Can a Buddhist be a freemason?

Answer 1

Freemasonry is not a religion but it certainly does acknowledge the existence of a "supreme being" and this is certainly not the Antichrist, Devil or Satan. In point of fact, the vast majority of Freemasons identify themselves as Christians.

Answer 2

Freemasons have to swear belief in a great architect; the interpretation of that is up to the candidate, so it's probably possible for most atheists to come up with a way of swearing that is true - after all, Frank Lloyd Wright was a great architect.

Answer 3

Absolutely, provided that he believes in a Supreme Being.

Answer 4

No, to be a mason it is required to believe in a supreme being. The masons do not admit anyone who is of catholic faith.

Answer 5

While the Masons may think they control the thoughts and beliefs of their members, anyone who cares enough to join can probably lie on his application form.
